15 VIRGINIA ORCHARD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 15 VIRGINIA ORCHARD sales between July 1997 and September 2006 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 May 2002 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the September 2006 sale, where it falls to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might 15 VIRGINIA ORCHARD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 63.6%, between September 2006 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Somerset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 63.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 VIRGINIA ORCHARD of £180,500 on 18th September 2006. For the value to have increased from £180,500 to £295,289 over the nineteen years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
