THE RUDDINGS 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 RUDDINGS sales from September 1998 and June 2010 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 September 1998 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the June 2010 sale, where it falls to 44% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% below the HPI.

What might THE RUDDINGS be worth now?

THE RUDDINGS might now be worth an estimated £258,062.

This is based on house price inflation of 63.8%, between June 2010 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 63.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE RUDDINGS of £157,500 on 29th June 2010. For the value to have increased from £157,500 to £258,062 over the fifteen years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE RUDDINGS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The June 2010 sale price of £157,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE RUDDINGS has not materially changed since June 2010.
