SOUTHCOTE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Hams local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three SOUTHCOTE sales between February 1995 and August 2012 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 2006 sale was for 106% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 106% above the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it falls to 73% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 73% above the HPI.

What might SOUTHCOTE be worth now?

SOUTHCOTE might now be worth an estimated £1,009,028.

This is based on house price inflation of 52.9%, between August 2012 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the South Hams local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 52.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SOUTHCOTE of £660,000 on 8th August 2012. For the value to have increased from £660,000 to £1,009,028 over the thirteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SOUTHCOTE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Hams local authority area.
• The August 2012 sale price of £660,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SOUTHCOTE has not materially changed since August 2012.
