The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 42 BARTON ROAD sales between June 2002 and August 2024 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 November 2002 sale was for 52% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% below the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it rises to 50% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% below the HPI.
