WOODHAY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three WOODHAY COTTAGE sales between April 2002 and March 2019 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 July 2006 sale was for 101% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 101% above the HPI over time, until the March 2019 sale, where it rises to 116% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 116% above the HPI.

What might WOODHAY COTTAGE be worth now?

WOODHAY COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,173,233.

This is based on house price inflation of 21%, between March 2019 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the East Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 21% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WOODHAY COTTAGE of £970,000 on 1st March 2019. For the value to have increased from £970,000 to £1,173,233 over the four years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WOODHAY COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Devon local authority area.
• The March 2019 sale price of £970,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WOODHAY COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2019.
