MIDDLE HOLLY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wyre local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MIDDLE HOLLY COTTAGE sales between July 2014 and August 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 June 2021 sale was for 112% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 112% above the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it rises to 120% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 120% above the HPI.

What might MIDDLE HOLLY COTTAGE be worth now?

MIDDLE HOLLY COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £661,732.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.8%, between August 2023 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wyre local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MIDDLE HOLLY COTTAGE of £650,000 on 15th August 2023. For the value to have increased from £650,000 to £661,732 over the eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
