5 TORCROSS GROVE 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 three 5 TORCROSS GROVE sales between April 1997 and October 2009 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 August 2005 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the October 2009 sale, where it rises to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.

What might 5 TORCROSS GROVE be worth now?

5 TORCROSS GROVE might now be worth an estimated £547,656.

This is based on house price inflation of 82.6%, between October 2009 and December 2024, for 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 82.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 TORCROSS GROVE of £300,000 on 9th October 2009. For the value to have increased from £300,000 to £547,656 over the fourteen years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
