THATCHED COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THATCHED COTTAGE sales between March 2000 and November 2010 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 2007 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the November 2010 sale, where it rises to 33% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% above the HPI.

What might THATCHED COTTAGE be worth now?

THATCHED COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,025,691.

This is based on house price inflation of 79.9%, between November 2010 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wokingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 79.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THATCHED COTTAGE of £570,000 on 5th November 2010. For the value to have increased from £570,000 to £1,025,691 over the thirteen years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THATCHED COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wokingham local authority area.
• The November 2010 sale price of £570,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THATCHED COTTAGE has not materially changed since November 2010.
