PUMP COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sevenoaks local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three PUMP COTTAGE sales between May 2004 and May 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 December 2006 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it falls to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might PUMP COTTAGE be worth now?

PUMP COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £870,776.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.4%, between May 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Sevenoaks local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for PUMP COTTAGE of £850,000 on 19th May 2023. For the value to have increased from £850,000 to £870,776 over the two years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of PUMP COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Sevenoaks local authority area.
• The May 2023 sale price of £850,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of PUMP COTTAGE has not materially changed since May 2023.
