26 VALLEY CLOSE 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 two 26 VALLEY CLOSE sales from September 2005 and November 2024 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 September 2005 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the November 2024 sale, where it rises to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.

What might 26 VALLEY CLOSE be worth now?
