ROWAN 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 three ROWAN COTTAGE sales between November 1996 and July 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 January 2015 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the July 2020 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might ROWAN COTTAGE be worth now?

ROWAN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £478,766.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.2%, between July 2020 and December 2024, 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 18.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ROWAN COTTAGE of £405,000 on 24th July 2020. For the value to have increased from £405,000 to £478,766 over the three years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ROWAN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Vale of White Horse local authority area.
• The July 2020 sale price of £405,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
