STABLE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three STABLE COTTAGE sales between June 2004 and January 2016 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 2011 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the January 2016 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.

What might STABLE COTTAGE be worth now?

STABLE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £889,965.

This is based on house price inflation of 33.8%, between January 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the South Oxfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 33.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for STABLE COTTAGE of £665,000 on 15th January 2016. For the value to have increased from £665,000 to £889,965 over the eight years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of STABLE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Oxfordshire local authority area.
• The January 2016 sale price of £665,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of STABLE COTTAGE has not materially changed since January 2016.
