20 LOWER STREET Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 20 LOWER STREET sales from May 1995 and November 1996 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 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the November 1996 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.

What might 20 LOWER STREET be worth now?

20 LOWER STREET might now be worth an estimated £257,238.

This is based on house price inflation of 441.6%, between November 1996 and July 2025, for terraced 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 441.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 LOWER STREET of £47,500 on 15th November 1996. For the value to have increased from £47,500 to £257,238 over the 29 years and four months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 20 LOWER STREET has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The November 1996 sale price of £47,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 20 LOWER STREET has not materially changed since November 1996.
