5 ASPARAGUS CLOSE 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 three 5 ASPARAGUS CLOSE sales between March 2006 and November 2022 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 December 2015 sale was for 47% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% above the HPI over time, until the November 2022 sale, which was also at 47% above the HPI.

What might 5 ASPARAGUS CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 3.9%, between November 2022 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 3.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 ASPARAGUS CLOSE of £580,000 on 7th November 2022. For the value to have increased from £580,000 to £602,419 over the three years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
