COB COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Calderdale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three COB COTTAGE sales between June 1996 and December 2022 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 2001 sale was for 44% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% above the HPI over time, until the December 2022 sale, where it falls to 61% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 61% below the HPI.

What might COB COTTAGE be worth now?

COB COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £85,718.

This is based on house price inflation of 7.1%, between December 2022 and August 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Calderdale local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 7.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for COB COTTAGE of £80,000 on 2nd December 2022. For the value to have increased from £80,000 to £85,718 over the three years and four months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of COB COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Calderdale local authority area.
• The December 2022 sale price of £80,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of COB COTTAGE has not materially changed since December 2022.
