ORCHARD COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four ORCHARD COTTAGE sales between December 2005 and March 2021 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 July 2018 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it falls to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.

What might ORCHARD COTTAGE be worth now?

ORCHARD COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £407,475.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.6%, between March 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wakefield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 21.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ORCHARD COTTAGE of £335,000 on 26th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £335,000 to £407,475 over the four years and one month 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 Wakefield local authority area.
• The March 2021 sale price of £335,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ORCHARD COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2021.
