QUINNELS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Vale of White Horse local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two QUINNELS COTTAGE sales from October 1997 and August 2001 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 October 1997 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the August 2001 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might QUINNELS COTTAGE be worth now?

QUINNELS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £583,112.

This is based on house price inflation of 171.2%, between August 2001 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Vale of White Horse local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 171.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for QUINNELS COTTAGE of £215,000 on 2nd August 2001. For the value to have increased from £215,000 to £583,112 over the 24 years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of QUINNELS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Vale of White Horse local authority area.
• The August 2001 sale price of £215,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
