CHURCH COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Forest of Dean local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CHURCH COTTAGE sales from June 2003 and December 2016 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 June 2003 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the December 2016 sale, where it falls to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.

What might CHURCH COTTAGE be worth now?

CHURCH COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £365,188.

This is based on house price inflation of 48.5%, between December 2016 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Forest of Dean local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 48.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CHURCH COTTAGE of £246,000 on 16th December 2016. For the value to have increased from £246,000 to £365,188 over the nine years and six months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
