GARDEN 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 GARDEN COTTAGE sales from January 2001 and July 2009 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 January 2001 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the July 2009 sale, where it rises to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might GARDEN COTTAGE be worth now?

GARDEN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £472,632.

This is based on house price inflation of 74.4%, between July 2009 and December 2024, 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 74.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for GARDEN COTTAGE of £271,000 on 23rd July 2009. For the value to have increased from £271,000 to £472,632 over the fourteen years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of GARDEN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The July 2009 sale price of £271,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of GARDEN COTTAGE has not materially changed since July 2009.
