RAILWAY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Powys local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two RAILWAY COTTAGE sales from November 2009 and March 2014 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 2009 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the March 2014 sale, where it rises to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.

What might RAILWAY COTTAGE be worth now?

RAILWAY COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £233,208.

This is based on house price inflation of 55.5%, between March 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Powys local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 55.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for RAILWAY COTTAGE of £149,995 on 31st March 2014. For the value to have increased from £149,995 to £233,208 over the eleven years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of RAILWAY COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Powys local authority area.
• The March 2014 sale price of £149,995 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of RAILWAY COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2014.
