The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average detached price in the Shropshire local authority area for the corresponding sale date.

Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |
---|---|---|---|
2024 20 AUG | £423,590 | £402,346 | ![]() 5% above HPI |

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SANDSTONE COTTAGE sales from May 2001 and August 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 May 2001 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it falls to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.
SANDSTONE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £439,318.
This is based on house price inflation of 3.7%, between August 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Shropshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 3.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SANDSTONE COTTAGE of £423,590 on 20th August 2024. For the value to have increased from £423,590 to £439,318 over the one year and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
