WESTLEIGH 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 WESTLEIGH sales from May 1995 and September 2016 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 May 1995 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, which was also at 11% below the HPI.

What might WESTLEIGH be worth now?

WESTLEIGH might now be worth an estimated £408,690.

This is based on house price inflation of 37.4%, between September 2016 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 37.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WESTLEIGH of £297,500 on 16th September 2016. For the value to have increased from £297,500 to £408,690 over the nine years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WESTLEIGH has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The September 2016 sale price of £297,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WESTLEIGH has not materially changed since September 2016.
