SILENT WHISTLE 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 SILENT WHISTLE sales from April 1996 and April 2001 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 April 1996 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the April 2001 sale, where it rises to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.

What might SILENT WHISTLE be worth now?

SILENT WHISTLE might now be worth an estimated £577,096.

This is based on house price inflation of 211.9%, between April 2001 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 211.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SILENT WHISTLE of £185,000 on 23rd April 2001. For the value to have increased from £185,000 to £577,096 over the 24 years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SILENT WHISTLE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The April 2001 sale price of £185,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SILENT WHISTLE has not materially changed since April 2001.
