40 DRUCE WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 40 DRUCE WAY sales between April 1995 and April 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 August 2001 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the April 2017 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 40 DRUCE WAY be worth now?

40 DRUCE WAY might now be worth an estimated £514,447.

This is based on house price inflation of 21%, between April 2017 and December 2024, for 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 21% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 40 DRUCE WAY of £425,000 on 28th April 2017. For the value to have increased from £425,000 to £514,447 over the six years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
