PRIMROSE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three PRIMROSE COTTAGE sales between May 1999 and April 2009 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 November 2000 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the April 2009 sale, where it rises to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.

What might PRIMROSE COTTAGE be worth now?

PRIMROSE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £913,336.

This is based on house price inflation of 103%, between April 2009 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the West Berkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 103% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for PRIMROSE COTTAGE of £450,000 on 15th April 2009. For the value to have increased from £450,000 to £913,336 over the sixteen years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of PRIMROSE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The April 2009 sale price of £450,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of PRIMROSE COTTAGE has not materially changed since April 2009.
