THE COTTAGE is a very large extended detached house of 267m², built sometime before 1900, which could now be worth an estimated £1,816,526. It was last sold for £360,000 in December 1998, which was around 221% above the average December 1998 detached price in the Milton Keynes local authority area. The most recent EPC inspection was October 2013, where the current energy rating was D, and the potential energy rating was C.
Land registry data shows two sales for THE COTTAGE since 1st January 1995. The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average detached price in the Milton Keynes local authority area for the corresponding sale date. Both of the two THE COTTAGE sales were for above the average price. The average price is sourced from the Office for National Statistics' House Price Index (HPI).
Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |
---|---|---|---|
1998 11 DEC | £360,000 | £112,056 | ![]() 221% above HPI |
1996 18 MAR | £290,000 | £86,860 | ![]() 234% above HPI |
The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Milton Keynes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE COTTAGE sales from March 1996 and December 1998 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 March 1996 sale was for 234% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 234% above the HPI over time, until the December 1998 sale, where it falls to 221% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 221% above the HPI.
THE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,816,526.
This is based on house price inflation of 404.6%, between December 1998 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Milton Keynes local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 404.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE COTTAGE of £360,000 on 11th December 1998. For the value to have increased from £360,000 to £1,816,526 over the 27 years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
