THIMBLE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mole Valley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THIMBLE COTTAGE sales from July 2000 and March 2015 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 July 2000 sale was for 50% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% below the HPI over time, until the March 2015 sale, where it rises to 45% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% below the HPI.

What might THIMBLE COTTAGE be worth now?

THIMBLE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £542,513.

This is based on house price inflation of 33.1%, between March 2015 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Mole Valley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 33.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THIMBLE COTTAGE of £407,500 on 3rd March 2015. For the value to have increased from £407,500 to £542,513 over the ten years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THIMBLE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mole Valley local authority area.
• The March 2015 sale price of £407,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THIMBLE COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2015.
