THE OLD RECTORY 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 RECTORY sales from April 2010 and December 2020 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 2010 sale was for 164% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 164% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it rises to 287% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 287% above the HPI.

What might THE OLD RECTORY be worth now?

THE OLD RECTORY might now be worth an estimated £1,783,650.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.1%, between December 2020 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 15.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE OLD RECTORY of £1,550,000 on 2nd December 2020. For the value to have increased from £1,550,000 to £1,783,650 over the five years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE OLD RECTORY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The December 2020 sale price of £1,550,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE OLD RECTORY has not materially changed since December 2020.
