26 READES LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 26 READES LANE sales between July 1998 and January 2014 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 July 2004 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the January 2014 sale, where it falls to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might 26 READES LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 58.2%, between January 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the South Oxfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 58.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 READES LANE of £499,950 on 10th January 2014. For the value to have increased from £499,950 to £790,826 over the ten years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
