STELLA COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two STELLA COTTAGE sales from July 1996 and October 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 July 1996 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the October 2010 sale, where it rises to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.

What might STELLA COTTAGE be worth now?

STELLA COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £514,152.

This is based on house price inflation of 68.6%, between October 2010 and August 2025, for detached houses, in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 68.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for STELLA COTTAGE of £305,000 on 13th October 2010. For the value to have increased from £305,000 to £514,152 over the fifteen years and two months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of STELLA COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk local authority area.
• The October 2010 sale price of £305,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of STELLA COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2010.
