MAPLE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Boston local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four MAPLE COTTAGE sales between January 1996 and April 2014 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 November 2009 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might MAPLE COTTAGE be worth now?

MAPLE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £161,636.

This is based on house price inflation of 53.9%, between April 2014 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Boston local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 53.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MAPLE COTTAGE of £105,000 on 7th April 2014. For the value to have increased from £105,000 to £161,636 over the eleven years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MAPLE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Boston local authority area.
• The April 2014 sale price of £105,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MAPLE COTTAGE has not materially changed since April 2014.
