4 LAMORNA CRESCENT 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 two 4 LAMORNA CRESCENT sales from June 2004 and December 2014 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 June 2004 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the December 2014 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.

What might 4 LAMORNA CRESCENT be worth now?

4 LAMORNA CRESCENT might now be worth an estimated £454,945.

This is based on house price inflation of 44.4%, between December 2014 and February 2025, 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 44.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 LAMORNA CRESCENT of £315,000 on 19th December 2014. For the value to have increased from £315,000 to £454,945 over the eleven years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 LAMORNA CRESCENT has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The December 2014 sale price of £315,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 LAMORNA CRESCENT has not materially changed since December 2014.
