26 SYCAMORE ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 SYCAMORE ROAD sales from November 2007 and August 2010 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 November 2007 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the August 2010 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might 26 SYCAMORE ROAD be worth now?

26 SYCAMORE ROAD might now be worth an estimated £428,671.

This is based on house price inflation of 80.1%, between August 2010 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Reading local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 80.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 SYCAMORE ROAD of £238,000 on 31st August 2010. For the value to have increased from £238,000 to £428,671 over the fifteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 26 SYCAMORE ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
• The August 2010 sale price of £238,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
