SUMMERHILL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three SUMMERHILL COTTAGE sales between August 1998 and January 2003 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 2001 sale was for 71% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 71% above the HPI over time, until the January 2003 sale, where it rises to 82% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 82% above the HPI.

What might SUMMERHILL COTTAGE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 241.6%, between January 2003 and March 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Bolton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 241.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SUMMERHILL COTTAGE of £115,000 on 10th January 2003. For the value to have increased from £115,000 to £392,862 over the 21 years and ten months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
