HATHERLEIGH 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 HATHERLEIGH sales between August 1997 and June 2016 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 2002 sale was for 161% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 161% above the HPI over time, until the June 2016 sale, where it falls to 154% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 154% above the HPI.

What might HATHERLEIGH be worth now?

HATHERLEIGH might now be worth an estimated £1,165,301.

This is based on house price inflation of 39.6%, between June 2016 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 39.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HATHERLEIGH of £835,000 on 29th June 2016. For the value to have increased from £835,000 to £1,165,301 over the seven years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HATHERLEIGH has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The June 2016 sale price of £835,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HATHERLEIGH has not materially changed since June 2016.
