BRIDLE 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 three BRIDLE COTTAGE sales between December 2005 and October 2014 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 2009 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might BRIDLE COTTAGE be worth now?

BRIDLE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £507,518.

This is based on house price inflation of 51.5%, between October 2014 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 51.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BRIDLE COTTAGE of £335,000 on 31st October 2014. For the value to have increased from £335,000 to £507,518 over the eleven years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BRIDLE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The October 2014 sale price of £335,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BRIDLE COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2014.
