POPLAR COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheltenham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four POPLAR COTTAGE sales between June 1995 and June 2014 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 2007 sale was for 55% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% below the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it falls to 61% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 61% below the HPI.

What might POPLAR COTTAGE be worth now?

POPLAR COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £248,381.

This is based on house price inflation of 60.2%, between June 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Cheltenham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 60.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for POPLAR COTTAGE of £155,000 on 16th June 2014. For the value to have increased from £155,000 to £248,381 over the eleven years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of POPLAR COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheltenham local authority area.
• The June 2014 sale price of £155,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of POPLAR COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 2014.
