POPPY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tendring local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six POPPY COTTAGE sales between March 2001 and July 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 August 2019 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it falls to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.

What might POPPY COTTAGE be worth now?

POPPY COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £253,367.

This is based on house price deflation of 1.4%, between July 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Tendring local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.4% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for POPPY COTTAGE of £257,000 on 21st July 2023. For the value to have decreased from £257,000 to £253,367 over the two years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of POPPY COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Tendring local authority area.
• The July 2023 sale price of £257,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of POPPY COTTAGE has not materially changed since July 2023.
