5 SOMERSET CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stroud local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 SOMERSET CLOSE sales between December 1997 and June 2011 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 2007 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the June 2011 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 5 SOMERSET CLOSE be worth now?

5 SOMERSET CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £419,995.

This is based on house price inflation of 69.7%, between June 2011 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Stroud local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 69.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 SOMERSET CLOSE of £247,500 on 22nd June 2011. For the value to have increased from £247,500 to £419,995 over the fourteen years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
