CLACKS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CLACKS COTTAGE sales from April 1999 and February 2008 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 April 1999 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the February 2008 sale, where it rises to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.

What might CLACKS COTTAGE be worth now?

CLACKS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £949,855.

This is based on house price inflation of 68.1%, between February 2008 and June 2025, for detached 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 68.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CLACKS COTTAGE of £565,000 on 8th February 2008. For the value to have increased from £565,000 to £949,855 over the sixteen years and eight months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CLACKS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Oxfordshire local authority area.
• The February 2008 sale price of £565,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CLACKS COTTAGE has not materially changed since February 2008.
