20 HIGHFIELDS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 20 HIGHFIELDS sales between July 1998 and September 2011 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 2003 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the September 2011 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might 20 HIGHFIELDS be worth now?

20 HIGHFIELDS might now be worth an estimated £548,658.

This is based on house price inflation of 79.3%, between September 2011 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wokingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 79.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 HIGHFIELDS of £306,000 on 29th September 2011. For the value to have increased from £306,000 to £548,658 over the twelve years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 20 HIGHFIELDS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wokingham local authority area.
• The September 2011 sale price of £306,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 20 HIGHFIELDS has not materially changed since September 2011.
