KNOWLE 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 two KNOWLE COTTAGE sales from January 2012 and May 2015 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 January 2012 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the May 2015 sale, where it rises to 40% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% above the HPI.

What might KNOWLE COTTAGE be worth now?

KNOWLE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £741,443.

This is based on house price inflation of 42.6%, between May 2015 and February 2025, 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 42.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for KNOWLE COTTAGE of £520,000 on 27th May 2015. For the value to have increased from £520,000 to £741,443 over the ten years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of KNOWLE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The May 2015 sale price of £520,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of KNOWLE COTTAGE has not materially changed since May 2015.
