The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 HIGHFIELD ROAD sales from February 2013 and September 2020 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 February 2013 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it rises to 40% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% above the HPI.
