COLUMBINE 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 four COLUMBINE COTTAGE sales between November 2001 and February 2023 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 March 2020 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the February 2023 sale, where it rises to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might COLUMBINE COTTAGE be worth now?

COLUMBINE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £450,169.

This is based on house price deflation of 1.1%, between February 2023 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 1.1% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for COLUMBINE COTTAGE of £455,000 on 21st February 2023. For the value to have decreased from £455,000 to £450,169 over the two years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of COLUMBINE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The February 2023 sale price of £455,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of COLUMBINE COTTAGE has not materially changed since February 2023.
