BROOK COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cheshire East local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BROOK COTTAGE sales from August 2014 and September 2018 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 August 2014 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it falls to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might BROOK COTTAGE be worth now?

BROOK COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £279,498.

This is based on house price inflation of 34.4%, between September 2018 and June 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Cheshire East local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 34.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BROOK COTTAGE of £208,000 on 6th September 2018. For the value to have increased from £208,000 to £279,498 over the seven years and three months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BROOK COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Cheshire East local authority area.
• The September 2018 sale price of £208,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BROOK COTTAGE has not materially changed since September 2018.
