BARLEY COTTAGE 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 five BARLEY COTTAGE sales between January 2003 and December 2021 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 July 2017 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the December 2021 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.
