THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the West Suffolk local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE COTTAGE sales from August 1995 and September 2019 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 August 1995 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might THE COTTAGE be worth now?

THE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £194,462.

This is based on house price inflation of 17.9%, between September 2019 and July 2025, for terraced houses, in the West Suffolk local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 17.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE COTTAGE of £165,000 on 4th September 2019. For the value to have increased from £165,000 to £194,462 over the six years and two months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the West Suffolk local authority area.
• The September 2019 sale price of £165,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE COTTAGE has not materially changed since September 2019.
