WALNUT TREE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WALNUT TREE COTTAGE sales from January 1997 and February 2000 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 January 1997 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the February 2000 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might WALNUT TREE COTTAGE be worth now?

WALNUT TREE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £490,429.

This is based on house price inflation of 300.4%, between February 2000 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Mid Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 300.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WALNUT TREE COTTAGE of £122,500 on 18th February 2000. For the value to have increased from £122,500 to £490,429 over the 25 years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WALNUT TREE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Suffolk local authority area.
• The February 2000 sale price of £122,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WALNUT TREE COTTAGE has not materially changed since February 2000.
