WHITE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WHITE COTTAGE sales from November 2006 and November 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 November 2006 sale was for 56% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% above the HPI over time, until the November 2013 sale, where it falls to 51% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 51% above the HPI.

What might WHITE COTTAGE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 67.1%, between November 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the North Hertfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 67.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WHITE COTTAGE of £699,995 on 5th November 2013. For the value to have increased from £699,995 to £1,169,823 over the twelve years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
