SMITHY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wyre local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four SMITHY COTTAGE sales between November 1999 and July 2017 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 October 2004 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the July 2017 sale, where it falls to 6% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% below the HPI.

What might SMITHY COTTAGE be worth now?

SMITHY COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £291,089.

This is based on house price inflation of 35.7%, between July 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wyre local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 35.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SMITHY COTTAGE of £214,500 on 21st July 2017. For the value to have increased from £214,500 to £291,089 over the eight years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
