MARTHAS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four MARTHAS COTTAGE sales between May 1997 and January 2018 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 2006 sale was for 80% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 80% above the HPI over time, until the January 2018 sale, where it falls to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.

What might MARTHAS COTTAGE be worth now?

MARTHAS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £517,129.

This is based on house price inflation of 23.1%, between January 2018 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the East Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 23.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MARTHAS COTTAGE of £420,000 on 4th January 2018. For the value to have increased from £420,000 to £517,129 over the six years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MARTHAS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Suffolk local authority area.
• The January 2018 sale price of £420,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MARTHAS COTTAGE has not materially changed since January 2018.
