KNAPP COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three KNAPP COTTAGE sales between August 1996 and September 2025 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 August 1998 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the September 2025 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might KNAPP COTTAGE be worth now?

KNAPP COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £442,640.

This is based on house price deflation of 1.6%, between September 2025 and May 2026, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.6% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for KNAPP COTTAGE of £450,000 on 12th September 2025. For the value to have decreased from £450,000 to £442,640 over the one year and four months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of KNAPP COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The September 2025 sale price of £450,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of KNAPP COTTAGE has not materially changed since September 2025.
