LOWER CLATCOMBE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LOWER CLATCOMBE COTTAGE sales between March 1995 and August 2019 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the August 1997 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it falls to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.

What might LOWER CLATCOMBE COTTAGE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 23.4%, between August 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 23.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LOWER CLATCOMBE COTTAGE of £465,000 on 23rd August 2019. For the value to have increased from £465,000 to £573,609 over the six years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
