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 four HILLCREST sales between May 1998 and December 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 December 2006 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the December 2013 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.

What might HILLCREST be worth now?

HILLCREST might now be worth an estimated £561,052.

This is based on house price inflation of 59.8%, between December 2013 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 59.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HILLCREST of £351,000 on 9th December 2013. For the value to have increased from £351,000 to £561,052 over the twelve years and ten 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 December 2013 sale price of £351,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HILLCREST has not materially changed since December 2013.
