NEWLYN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two NEWLYN COTTAGE sales from March 1999 and October 2005 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 March 1999 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the October 2005 sale, where it rises to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might NEWLYN COTTAGE be worth now?

NEWLYN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £490,423.

This is based on house price inflation of 75.2%, between October 2005 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 75.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for NEWLYN COTTAGE of £280,000 on 13th October 2005. For the value to have increased from £280,000 to £490,423 over the twenty years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of NEWLYN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The October 2005 sale price of £280,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of NEWLYN COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2005.
