HAWTHORN 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 HAWTHORN COTTAGE sales from January 2015 and June 2017 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 2015 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the June 2017 sale, where it rises to 44% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% above the HPI.

What might HAWTHORN COTTAGE be worth now?

HAWTHORN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £657,549.

This is based on house price inflation of 31.5%, between June 2017 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 31.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HAWTHORN COTTAGE of £500,000 on 14th June 2017. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £657,549 over the six years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HAWTHORN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The June 2017 sale price of £500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HAWTHORN COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 2017.
