MELODY 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 two MELODY COTTAGE sales from November 2015 and September 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 November 2015 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it rises to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.

What might MELODY COTTAGE be worth now?

MELODY COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £310,439.

This is based on house price inflation of 24.2%, between September 2018 and February 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 24.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MELODY COTTAGE of £250,000 on 13th September 2018. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £310,439 over the seven years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MELODY COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Devon local authority area.
• The September 2018 sale price of £250,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MELODY COTTAGE has not materially changed since September 2018.
