5 BITTERNE AVENUE 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 two 5 BITTERNE AVENUE sales from December 1998 and April 2019 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 1998 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the April 2019 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might 5 BITTERNE AVENUE be worth now?

5 BITTERNE AVENUE might now be worth an estimated £401,546.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.7%, between April 2019 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 21.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 BITTERNE AVENUE of £330,000 on 12th April 2019. For the value to have increased from £330,000 to £401,546 over the six years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 BITTERNE AVENUE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The April 2019 sale price of £330,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
