ROSE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torfaen local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ROSE COTTAGE sales between April 1996 and October 2024 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 January 2002 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it rises to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.

What might ROSE COTTAGE be worth now?

ROSE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £286,644.

This is based on house price deflation of 0.3%, between October 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Torfaen local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.3% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for ROSE COTTAGE of £287,500 on 23rd October 2024. For the value to have decreased from £287,500 to £286,644 over the one year and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ROSE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Torfaen local authority area.
• The October 2024 sale price of £287,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ROSE COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2024.
