RIVER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Babergh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two RIVER COTTAGE sales from April 2014 and June 2020 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 April 2014 sale was for 49% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 49% above the HPI over time, until the June 2020 sale, where it falls to 35% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% above the HPI.
