WALNUT COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WALNUT COTTAGE sales from August 2011 and November 2020 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 2011 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, which was also at 12% above the HPI.
