MARLBOROUGH COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MARLBOROUGH COTTAGE sales between February 1996 and January 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 February 2008 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the January 2014 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.

What might MARLBOROUGH COTTAGE be worth now?

MARLBOROUGH COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £350,304.

This is based on house price inflation of 54%, between January 2014 and March 2025, for detached houses, in the East Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 54% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MARLBOROUGH COTTAGE of £227,500 on 31st January 2014. For the value to have increased from £227,500 to £350,304 over the ten years and ten months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MARLBOROUGH COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Devon local authority area.
• The January 2014 sale price of £227,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MARLBOROUGH COTTAGE has not materially changed since January 2014.
