THE NOOK 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 THE NOOK sales from July 2012 and September 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 July 2012 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it rises to 33% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% above the HPI.

What might THE NOOK be worth now?

THE NOOK might now be worth an estimated £611,810.

This is based on house price inflation of 22.4%, between September 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 22.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE NOOK of £500,000 on 27th September 2019. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £611,810 over the six years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE NOOK has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The September 2019 sale price of £500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE NOOK has not materially changed since September 2019.
