HILL VIEW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HILL VIEW sales from July 2004 and August 2013 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 2004 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the August 2013 sale, where it falls to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might HILL VIEW be worth now?

HILL VIEW might now be worth an estimated £323,668.

This is based on house price inflation of 66%, between August 2013 and February 2025, for semi-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 66% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HILL VIEW of £195,000 on 19th August 2013. For the value to have increased from £195,000 to £323,668 over the twelve years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HILL VIEW has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The August 2013 sale price of £195,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HILL VIEW has not materially changed since August 2013.
