The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Vale of White Horse local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 PLAYFIELD ROAD sales from January 1995 and October 2013 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 January 1995 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the October 2013 sale, where it rises to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.
26 PLAYFIELD ROAD might now be worth an estimated £627,692.
This is based on house price inflation of 58.9%, between October 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Vale of White Horse local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 58.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 PLAYFIELD ROAD of £395,000 on 17th October 2013. For the value to have increased from £395,000 to £627,692 over the twelve years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
