WALNUT COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WALNUT COTTAGE sales from December 2003 and December 2013 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 2003 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the December 2013 sale, where it rises to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.

What might WALNUT COTTAGE be worth now?

WALNUT COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £581,740.

This is based on house price inflation of 49.2%, between December 2013 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 49.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WALNUT COTTAGE of £389,950 on 6th December 2013. For the value to have increased from £389,950 to £581,740 over the twelve years and six months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WALNUT COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The December 2013 sale price of £389,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WALNUT COTTAGE has not materially changed since December 2013.
