WATTS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Horsham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WATTS COTTAGE sales from January 2001 and January 2004 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 2001 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the January 2004 sale, where it rises to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might WATTS COTTAGE be worth now?

WATTS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £792,924.

This is based on house price inflation of 103.3%, between January 2004 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Horsham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 103.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WATTS COTTAGE of £390,000 on 5th January 2004. For the value to have increased from £390,000 to £792,924 over the twenty years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WATTS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Horsham local authority area.
• The January 2004 sale price of £390,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WATTS COTTAGE has not materially changed since January 2004.
