1 WARDS CROSS COTTAGES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 WARDS CROSS COTTAGES sales from July 2016 and July 2023 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 July 2016 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it rises to 82% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 82% above the HPI.

What might 1 WARDS CROSS COTTAGES be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 7.4%, between July 2023 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Wokingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 7.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 WARDS CROSS COTTAGES of £850,000 on 19th July 2023. For the value to have increased from £850,000 to £912,668 over the two years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
