THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the City of Plymouth local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE COTTAGE sales from November 2013 and April 2025 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 November 2013 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the April 2025 sale, where it rises to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.

What might THE COTTAGE be worth now?

THE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £589,349.

This is based on house price inflation of 4.3%, between April 2025 and July 2025, for detached houses, in the City of Plymouth local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE COTTAGE of £565,000 on 24th April 2025. For the value to have increased from £565,000 to £589,349 over the nine 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 City of Plymouth local authority area.
• The April 2025 sale price of £565,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE COTTAGE has not materially changed since April 2025.
