2 BEECH RISE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 BEECH RISE sales between September 2018 and May 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 May 2022 sale was for 40% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% below the HPI over time, until the May 2024 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might 2 BEECH RISE be worth now?

2 BEECH RISE might now be worth an estimated £791,901.

This is based on house price inflation of 9.1%, between May 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the South Oxfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 9.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 BEECH RISE of £726,000 on 31st May 2024. For the value to have increased from £726,000 to £791,901 over the one year and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 BEECH RISE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Oxfordshire local authority area.
• The May 2024 sale price of £726,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 BEECH RISE has not materially changed since May 2024.
