38 MEADOWSWEET CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 38 MEADOWSWEET CLOSE sales between November 1995 and March 2022 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 May 2001 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the March 2022 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 38 MEADOWSWEET CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 7.5%, between March 2022 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the West Berkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 7.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 38 MEADOWSWEET CLOSE of £291,500 on 11th March 2022. For the value to have increased from £291,500 to £313,334 over the one year and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
