MASSON COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Derbyshire Dales local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five MASSON COTTAGE sales between March 2002 and October 2023 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 2018 sale was for 27% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% above the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it rises to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.

What might MASSON COTTAGE be worth now?

MASSON COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £626,617.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.9%, between October 2023 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Derbyshire Dales local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MASSON COTTAGE of £615,000 on 27th October 2023. For the value to have increased from £615,000 to £626,617 over the ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MASSON COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Derbyshire Dales local authority area.
• The October 2023 sale price of £615,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MASSON COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2023.
