ROWAN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Three Rivers local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ROWAN COTTAGE sales from August 2006 and May 2011 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 August 2006 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the May 2011 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might ROWAN COTTAGE be worth now?

ROWAN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £952,102.

This is based on house price inflation of 67.6%, between May 2011 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Three Rivers local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 67.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ROWAN COTTAGE of £568,000 on 23rd May 2011. For the value to have increased from £568,000 to £952,102 over the fourteen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ROWAN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Three Rivers local authority area.
• The May 2011 sale price of £568,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ROWAN COTTAGE has not materially changed since May 2011.
