42 BLACKTHORN DRIVE 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 four 42 BLACKTHORN DRIVE sales between March 2000 and May 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 May 2017 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the May 2024 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI.
