MYRTLE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four MYRTLE COTTAGE sales between April 1996 and August 2012 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 February 2003 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might MYRTLE COTTAGE be worth now?

MYRTLE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £391,874.

This is based on house price inflation of 74.9%, between August 2012 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the West Northamptonshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 74.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MYRTLE COTTAGE of £224,000 on 15th August 2012. For the value to have increased from £224,000 to £391,874 over the thirteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The August 2012 sale price of £224,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
