THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cambridge local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE COTTAGE sales between February 2018 and September 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 August 2022 sale was for 55% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% below the HPI over time, until the September 2023 sale, where it rises to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might THE COTTAGE be worth now?

THE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £952,124.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.9%, between September 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Cambridge local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE COTTAGE of £925,000 on 19th September 2023. For the value to have increased from £925,000 to £952,124 over the two years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cambridge local authority area.
• The September 2023 sale price of £925,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE COTTAGE has not materially changed since September 2023.
