WINDLASS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Dacorum local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three WINDLASS COTTAGE sales between October 2001 and July 2014 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 February 2005 sale was for 62% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 62% above the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it rises to 79% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 79% above the HPI.

What might WINDLASS COTTAGE be worth now?

WINDLASS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £963,112.

This is based on house price inflation of 58.5%, between July 2014 and July 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Dacorum local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 58.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WINDLASS COTTAGE of £607,500 on 16th July 2014. For the value to have increased from £607,500 to £963,112 over the eleven years to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WINDLASS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Dacorum local authority area.
• The July 2014 sale price of £607,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
