THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Doncaster local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE COTTAGE sales from December 2003 and March 2016 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 December 2003 sale was for 39% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% above the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it falls to 29% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% above the HPI.

What might THE COTTAGE be worth now?

THE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £325,887.

This is based on house price inflation of 49.8%, between March 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Doncaster local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 49.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE COTTAGE of £217,500 on 11th March 2016. For the value to have increased from £217,500 to £325,887 over the nine years and one month 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 Doncaster local authority area.
• The March 2016 sale price of £217,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2016.
