WILLOWVIEW COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Colchester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WILLOWVIEW COTTAGE sales from May 2001 and August 2012 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 May 2001 sale was for 133% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 133% above the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it rises to 242% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 242% above the HPI.

What might WILLOWVIEW COTTAGE be worth now?

WILLOWVIEW COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,719,877.

This is based on house price inflation of 72.9%, between August 2012 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Colchester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 72.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WILLOWVIEW COTTAGE of £995,000 on 15th August 2012. For the value to have increased from £995,000 to £1,719,877 over the thirteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
