12 BARKER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 12 BARKER CLOSE sales between January 1999 and August 2024 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 2016 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 12 BARKER CLOSE be worth now?

12 BARKER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £850,562.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.1%, between August 2024 and February 2025, for 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 3.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 BARKER CLOSE of £825,000 on 27th August 2024. For the value to have increased from £825,000 to £850,562 over the one year and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 12 BARKER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wokingham local authority area.
• The August 2024 sale price of £825,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
