33 SOMERTON GARDENS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 33 SOMERTON GARDENS sales from March 1997 and May 2001 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 March 1997 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the May 2001 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might 33 SOMERTON GARDENS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 182.6%, between May 2001 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wokingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 182.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 33 SOMERTON GARDENS of £225,000 on 29th May 2001. For the value to have increased from £225,000 to £635,870 over the 22 years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
