POST OFFICE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two POST OFFICE COTTAGE sales from September 1995 and June 1999 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 1995 sale was for 51% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% above the HPI over time, until the June 1999 sale, where it falls to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.

What might POST OFFICE COTTAGE be worth now?

POST OFFICE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £476,459.

This is based on house price inflation of 290.5%, between June 1999 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Wiltshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 290.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for POST OFFICE COTTAGE of £122,000 on 24th June 1999. For the value to have increased from £122,000 to £476,459 over the 26 years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of POST OFFICE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wiltshire local authority area.
• The June 1999 sale price of £122,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of POST OFFICE COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 1999.
