HOLLY 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 HOLLY COTTAGE sales from September 2005 and March 2024 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 September 2005 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the March 2024 sale, where it falls to 36% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% below the HPI.
