LYNLEY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LYNLEY COTTAGE sales from December 2000 and June 2004 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 December 2000 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the June 2004 sale, where it rises to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might LYNLEY COTTAGE be worth now?

LYNLEY COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £334,597.

This is based on house price inflation of 85.9%, between June 2004 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the West Lancashire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 85.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LYNLEY COTTAGE of £180,000 on 10th June 2004. For the value to have increased from £180,000 to £334,597 over the nineteen years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LYNLEY COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Lancashire local authority area.
• The June 2004 sale price of £180,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
