ORCHARD 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 three ORCHARD COTTAGE sales between August 1998 and November 2018 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 2003 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it falls to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.

What might ORCHARD COTTAGE be worth now?

ORCHARD COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £531,969.

This is based on house price inflation of 23.7%, between November 2018 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 23.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ORCHARD COTTAGE of £430,000 on 16th November 2018. For the value to have increased from £430,000 to £531,969 over the seven years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ORCHARD COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The November 2018 sale price of £430,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ORCHARD COTTAGE has not materially changed since November 2018.
