POND CROSS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Uttlesford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four POND CROSS COTTAGE sales between May 1995 and June 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 2014 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might POND CROSS COTTAGE be worth now?

POND CROSS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £467,633.

This is based on house price inflation of 8.8%, between June 2021 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Uttlesford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 8.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for POND CROSS COTTAGE of £430,000 on 22nd June 2021. For the value to have increased from £430,000 to £467,633 over the two years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of POND CROSS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Uttlesford local authority area.
• The June 2021 sale price of £430,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of POND CROSS COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 2021.
