FOLLY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two FOLLY COTTAGE sales from July 2004 and March 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 July 2004 sale was for 110% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 110% above the HPI over time, until the March 2014 sale, where it rises to 172% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 172% above the HPI.

What might FOLLY COTTAGE be worth now?

FOLLY COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £799,064.

This is based on house price inflation of 52.2%, between March 2014 and August 2025, for terraced houses, in the Cherwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 52.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FOLLY COTTAGE of £525,000 on 5th March 2014. For the value to have increased from £525,000 to £799,064 over the ten years and seven months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FOLLY COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Cherwell local authority area.
• The March 2014 sale price of £525,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FOLLY COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2014.
