21 STAPLE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 21 STAPLE sales between October 2004 and October 2018 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 2006 sale was for 59% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% above the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 21 STAPLE be worth now?

21 STAPLE might now be worth an estimated £501,537.

This is based on house price inflation of 23.1%, between October 2018 and December 2024, for 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 23.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 21 STAPLE of £407,500 on 25th October 2018. For the value to have increased from £407,500 to £501,537 over the five years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 21 STAPLE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The October 2018 sale price of £407,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 21 STAPLE has not materially changed since October 2018.
