21 KIRKFELL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 21 KIRKFELL CLOSE sales from December 2013 and May 2022 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 2013 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the May 2022 sale, where it rises to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.

What might 21 KIRKFELL CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 7.9%, between May 2022 and February 2025, for semi-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 7.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 21 KIRKFELL CLOSE of £445,000 on 6th May 2022. For the value to have increased from £445,000 to £480,176 over the three years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
