SEATHWAITE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SEATHWAITE COTTAGE sales from September 2010 and June 2021 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 September 2010 sale was for 210% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 210% above the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it falls to 179% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 179% above the HPI.

What might SEATHWAITE COTTAGE be worth now?

SEATHWAITE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,111,093.

This is based on house price inflation of 17%, between June 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 17% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SEATHWAITE COTTAGE of £950,000 on 2nd June 2021. For the value to have increased from £950,000 to £1,111,093 over the four years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SEATHWAITE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area.
• The June 2021 sale price of £950,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SEATHWAITE COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 2021.
