SWATCHFORD 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 SWATCHFORD COTTAGE sales from April 2016 and September 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 April 2016 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it rises to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.

What might SWATCHFORD COTTAGE be worth now?

SWATCHFORD COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £599,937.

This is based on house price inflation of 23.7%, between September 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 SWATCHFORD COTTAGE of £485,000 on 28th September 2018. For the value to have increased from £485,000 to £599,937 over the seven years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
