TOWNEND 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 three TOWNEND COTTAGE sales between September 2007 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 September 2012 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might TOWNEND COTTAGE be worth now?

TOWNEND COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £320,450.

This is based on house price inflation of 20%, between September 2019 and March 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 20% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for TOWNEND COTTAGE of £267,000 on 6th September 2019. For the value to have increased from £267,000 to £320,450 over the six years and six months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of TOWNEND COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The September 2019 sale price of £267,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of TOWNEND COTTAGE has not materially changed since September 2019.
