HILLCREST 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 HILLCREST sales from August 2000 and August 2004 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 2000 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the August 2004 sale, where it rises to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.

What might HILLCREST be worth now?

HILLCREST might now be worth an estimated £672,963.

This is based on house price inflation of 77.3%, between August 2004 and February 2025, 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 77.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HILLCREST of £379,500 on 6th August 2004. For the value to have increased from £379,500 to £672,963 over the 21 years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HILLCREST has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The August 2004 sale price of £379,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HILLCREST has not materially changed since August 2004.
