STABLE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dacorum local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three STABLE COTTAGE sales between August 1995 and October 2020 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 July 1998 sale was for 45% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% above the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it falls to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might STABLE COTTAGE be worth now?

STABLE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £960,638.

This is based on house price inflation of 11.7%, between October 2020 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Dacorum local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 11.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for STABLE COTTAGE of £860,000 on 27th October 2020. For the value to have increased from £860,000 to £960,638 over the five years and four months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of STABLE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dacorum local authority area.
• The October 2020 sale price of £860,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of STABLE COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2020.
