16 SOMER FIELDS 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 16 SOMER FIELDS sales from January 2002 and May 2017 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 2002 sale was for 85% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 85% above the HPI over time, until the May 2017 sale, where it falls to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.

What might 16 SOMER FIELDS be worth now?

16 SOMER FIELDS might now be worth an estimated £706,352.

This is based on house price inflation of 26.1%, between May 2017 and February 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 26.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 SOMER FIELDS of £560,000 on 26th May 2017. For the value to have increased from £560,000 to £706,352 over the eight years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 SOMER FIELDS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The May 2017 sale price of £560,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 16 SOMER FIELDS has not materially changed since May 2017.
