BLUEBELL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four BLUEBELL COTTAGE sales between March 1995 and November 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 July 2005 sale was for 90% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 90% above the HPI over time, until the November 2014 sale, where it falls to 83% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 83% above the HPI.

What might BLUEBELL COTTAGE be worth now?

BLUEBELL COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £646,653.

This is based on house price inflation of 36.1%, between November 2014 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the South Oxfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 36.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BLUEBELL COTTAGE of £475,000 on 27th November 2014. For the value to have increased from £475,000 to £646,653 over the eleven years and five months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BLUEBELL COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the South Oxfordshire local authority area.
• The November 2014 sale price of £475,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BLUEBELL COTTAGE has not materially changed since November 2014.
