The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three FERN COTTAGE sales between June 1998 and April 2015 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 August 2005 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the April 2015 sale, where it rises to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.
