PLUM TREE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two PLUM TREE COTTAGE sales from October 1999 and June 2010 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 October 1999 sale was for 57% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 57% above the HPI over time, until the June 2010 sale, where it falls to 39% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% above the HPI.

What might PLUM TREE COTTAGE be worth now?

PLUM TREE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £483,571.

This is based on house price inflation of 66.7%, between June 2010 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Cherwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 66.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for PLUM TREE COTTAGE of £290,000 on 30th June 2010. For the value to have increased from £290,000 to £483,571 over the fifteen years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of PLUM TREE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Cherwell local authority area.
• The June 2010 sale price of £290,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of PLUM TREE COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 2010.
