4 ABBEY 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 five 4 ABBEY CLOSE sales between October 1997 and May 2017 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 2012 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the May 2017 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 4 ABBEY CLOSE be worth now?

4 ABBEY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £404,329.

This is based on house price inflation of 22.5%, between May 2017 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 22.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 ABBEY CLOSE of £330,000 on 12th May 2017. For the value to have increased from £330,000 to £404,329 over the six years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 ABBEY CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The May 2017 sale price of £330,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 ABBEY CLOSE has not materially changed since May 2017.
