THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stroud local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five THE COTTAGE sales between August 1995 and April 2021 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 2019 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the April 2021 sale, where it rises to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might THE COTTAGE be worth now?

THE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £574,289.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.4%, between April 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Stroud local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 18.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE COTTAGE of £485,000 on 9th April 2021. For the value to have increased from £485,000 to £574,289 over the four years and two 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 Stroud local authority area.
• The April 2021 sale price of £485,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE COTTAGE has not materially changed since April 2021.
