10 CHAFFINCH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 10 CHAFFINCH CLOSE sales between September 1995 and September 2011 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 2001 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the September 2011 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.

What might 10 CHAFFINCH CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 64.3%, between September 2011 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the West Berkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 64.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 10 CHAFFINCH CLOSE of £320,000 on 19th September 2011. For the value to have increased from £320,000 to £525,662 over the twelve years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 10 CHAFFINCH CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The September 2011 sale price of £320,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
