ESKER 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 two ESKER COTTAGE sales from March 2014 and October 2020 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 2014 sale was for 137% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 137% above the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it falls to 107% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 107% above the HPI.
