CHESTER COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the West Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six CHESTER COTTAGE sales between May 1996 and August 2013 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 March 2010 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the August 2013 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might CHESTER COTTAGE be worth now?

CHESTER COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £288,458.

This is based on house price inflation of 52.6%, between August 2013 and May 2026, for terraced houses, in the West Oxfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 52.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CHESTER COTTAGE of £189,000 on 19th August 2013. For the value to have increased from £189,000 to £288,458 over the thirteen years and three months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CHESTER COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the West Oxfordshire local authority area.
• The August 2013 sale price of £189,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CHESTER COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2013.
