The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 HIGHFIELD ROAD sales from December 2004 and February 2016 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 December 2004 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.
18 HIGHFIELD ROAD might now be worth an estimated £779,298.
This is based on house price inflation of 26.7%, between February 2016 and February 2025, 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 26.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 HIGHFIELD ROAD of £615,000 on 26th February 2016. For the value to have increased from £615,000 to £779,298 over the nine years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
