SOMERVILLE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Northumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SOMERVILLE sales from January 1995 and August 2022 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 January 1995 sale was for 116% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 116% above the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it falls to 71% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 71% above the HPI.

What might SOMERVILLE be worth now?

SOMERVILLE might now be worth an estimated £607,058.

This is based on house price inflation of 8.4%, between August 2022 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Northumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 8.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SOMERVILLE of £560,000 on 12th August 2022. For the value to have increased from £560,000 to £607,058 over the one year and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SOMERVILLE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Northumberland local authority area.
• The August 2022 sale price of £560,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SOMERVILLE has not materially changed since August 2022.
