MYRTLE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MYRTLE COTTAGE sales from January 2002 and August 2003 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 2002 sale was for 36% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% above the HPI over time, until the August 2003 sale, where it rises to 54% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 54% above the HPI.

What might MYRTLE COTTAGE be worth now?

MYRTLE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £497,303.

This is based on house price inflation of 99%, between August 2003 and July 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the East Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 99% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MYRTLE COTTAGE of £249,950 on 15th August 2003. For the value to have increased from £249,950 to £497,303 over the 22 years and one month to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MYRTLE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the East Devon local authority area.
• The August 2003 sale price of £249,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MYRTLE COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2003.
