MOSS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four MOSS COTTAGE sales between February 1997 and December 2012 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 October 2005 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the December 2012 sale, where it rises to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.

What might MOSS COTTAGE be worth now?

MOSS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,028,285.

This is based on house price inflation of 64.5%, between December 2012 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the South Oxfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 64.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MOSS COTTAGE of £625,000 on 11th December 2012. For the value to have increased from £625,000 to £1,028,285 over the thirteen years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MOSS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Oxfordshire local authority area.
• The December 2012 sale price of £625,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MOSS COTTAGE has not materially changed since December 2012.
