WOODS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WOODS COTTAGE sales from November 2015 and July 2020 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 November 2015 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the July 2020 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.

What might WOODS COTTAGE be worth now?

WOODS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £736,876.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.4%, between July 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wealden local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 18.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WOODS COTTAGE of £622,500 on 14th July 2020. For the value to have increased from £622,500 to £736,876 over the five years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WOODS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wealden local authority area.
• The July 2020 sale price of £622,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WOODS COTTAGE has not materially changed since July 2020.
