The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Vale of White Horse local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 42 ROMAN WAY sales between August 2002 and May 2020 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 February 2020 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the May 2020 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI.
