THE BLUE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Eastleigh local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE BLUE COTTAGE sales from May 2018 and August 2023 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 May 2018 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it rises to 58% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 58% above the HPI.

What might THE BLUE COTTAGE be worth now?

THE BLUE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £829,528.

This is based on house price deflation of 3%, between August 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Eastleigh local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for THE BLUE COTTAGE of £855,000 on 4th August 2023. For the value to have decreased from £855,000 to £829,528 over the two years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE BLUE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Eastleigh local authority area.
• The August 2023 sale price of £855,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE BLUE COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2023.
