THE OLD BYRE 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 OLD BYRE sales from April 2014 and September 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 April 2014 sale was for 37% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% above the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it falls to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might THE OLD BYRE be worth now?

THE OLD BYRE might now be worth an estimated £456,862.

This is based on house price deflation of 1.8%, between September 2022 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 1.8% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for THE OLD BYRE of £465,000 on 16th September 2022. For the value to have decreased from £465,000 to £456,862 over the three years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE OLD BYRE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The September 2022 sale price of £465,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE OLD BYRE has not materially changed since September 2022.
