DOLPHIN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Swindon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three DOLPHIN COTTAGE sales between February 2001 and October 2014 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 October 2001 sale was for 75% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 75% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it falls to 74% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 74% above the HPI.

What might DOLPHIN COTTAGE be worth now?

DOLPHIN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £395,715.

This is based on house price inflation of 59.6%, between October 2014 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the Swindon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 59.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for DOLPHIN COTTAGE of £248,000 on 31st October 2014. For the value to have increased from £248,000 to £395,715 over the eleven years and four months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
