ORCHARD COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ORCHARD COTTAGE sales between March 2020 and May 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 September 2021 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it rises to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.

What might ORCHARD COTTAGE be worth now?

ORCHARD COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £918,339.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.6%, between May 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ORCHARD COTTAGE of £895,000 on 25th May 2023. For the value to have increased from £895,000 to £918,339 over the two years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ORCHARD COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area.
• The May 2023 sale price of £895,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
