WITHY GROVE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Ribble local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WITHY GROVE COTTAGE sales from January 1997 and January 2024 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 January 1997 sale was for 40% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% above the HPI over time, until the January 2024 sale, where it rises to 57% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 57% above the HPI.

What might WITHY GROVE COTTAGE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 7.8%, between January 2024 and October 2025, for detached houses, in the South Ribble local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 7.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WITHY GROVE COTTAGE of £470,000 on 26th January 2024. For the value to have increased from £470,000 to £506,888 over the three months to October 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WITHY GROVE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Ribble local authority area.
• The January 2024 sale price of £470,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
