17 THE MOUNT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 17 THE MOUNT sales between April 1996 and March 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 July 2005 sale was for 80% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 80% above the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it rises to 82% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 82% above the HPI.

What might 17 THE MOUNT be worth now?

17 THE MOUNT might now be worth an estimated £1,260,396.

This is based on house price inflation of 16.7%, between March 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Reading local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 THE MOUNT of £1,080,000 on 11th March 2020. For the value to have increased from £1,080,000 to £1,260,396 over the five years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 17 THE MOUNT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The March 2020 sale price of £1,080,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 17 THE MOUNT has not materially changed since March 2020.
