WATERHEAD RANGE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WATERHEAD RANGE COTTAGE sales from March 2021 and December 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 March 2021 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the December 2021 sale, where it rises to 53% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% above the HPI.

What might WATERHEAD RANGE COTTAGE be worth now?

WATERHEAD RANGE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £607,728.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.8%, between December 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 15.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WATERHEAD RANGE COTTAGE of £525,000 on 17th December 2021. For the value to have increased from £525,000 to £607,728 over the four years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WATERHEAD RANGE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Westmorland and Furness local authority area.
• The December 2021 sale price of £525,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
