LANGSTRATH 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 LANGSTRATH sales between October 1999 and June 2019 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 October 2012 sale was for 66% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 66% above the HPI over time, until the June 2019 sale, where it falls to 64% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 64% above the HPI.

What might LANGSTRATH be worth now?

LANGSTRATH might now be worth an estimated £756,817.

This is based on house price inflation of 25.1%, between June 2019 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 25.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LANGSTRATH of £605,000 on 12th June 2019. For the value to have increased from £605,000 to £756,817 over the six years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LANGSTRATH has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The June 2019 sale price of £605,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LANGSTRATH has not materially changed since June 2019.
