THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE COTTAGE sales from December 2013 and March 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 December 2013 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might THE COTTAGE be worth now?

THE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £526,123.

This is based on house price inflation of 20.3%, between March 2020 and July 2025, for detached houses, in the Wealden local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 20.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE COTTAGE of £437,500 on 6th March 2020. For the value to have increased from £437,500 to £526,123 over the four years and eight months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wealden local authority area.
• The March 2020 sale price of £437,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2020.
