HILL TOP COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the High Peak local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four HILL TOP COTTAGE sales between June 1995 and May 2005 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 May 2002 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the May 2005 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might HILL TOP COTTAGE be worth now?

HILL TOP COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £387,869.

This is based on house price inflation of 68.6%, between May 2005 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the High Peak local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 68.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HILL TOP COTTAGE of £230,000 on 20th May 2005. For the value to have increased from £230,000 to £387,869 over the nineteen years and eleven months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HILL TOP COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the High Peak local authority area.
• The May 2005 sale price of £230,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HILL TOP COTTAGE has not materially changed since May 2005.
