4 TOWNSEND LANE 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 two 4 TOWNSEND LANE sales from September 2007 and September 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 September 2007 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.

What might 4 TOWNSEND LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 29.4%, between September 2017 and February 2025, 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 29.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 TOWNSEND LANE of £244,000 on 5th September 2017. For the value to have increased from £244,000 to £315,829 over the eight years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
