LAMB COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chichester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LAMB COTTAGE sales from June 1997 and September 2000 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 June 1997 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the September 2000 sale, where it rises to 69% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 69% above the HPI.

What might LAMB COTTAGE be worth now?

LAMB COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,149,774.

This is based on house price inflation of 187.4%, between September 2000 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Chichester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 187.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LAMB COTTAGE of £400,000 on 25th September 2000. For the value to have increased from £400,000 to £1,149,774 over the 25 years and three months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LAMB COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Chichester local authority area.
• The September 2000 sale price of £400,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LAMB COTTAGE has not materially changed since September 2000.
