The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 ESSEX PLACE sales from October 1997 and March 2009 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 October 1997 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the March 2009 sale, where it falls to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.
2 ESSEX PLACE might now be worth an estimated £759,172.
This is based on house price inflation of 102.4%, between March 2009 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 102.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 ESSEX PLACE of £375,000 on 26th March 2009. For the value to have increased from £375,000 to £759,172 over the sixteen years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
