The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 25 RIVER GARDENS sales between March 2000 and June 2019 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 2006 sale was for 58% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 58% above the HPI over time, until the June 2019 sale, where it rises to 69% above the HPI.
