6 KINGSDOWN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 6 KINGSDOWN CLOSE sales between March 1999 and October 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 June 2014 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the October 2019 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 6 KINGSDOWN CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 25.3%, between October 2019 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Wokingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 25.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 KINGSDOWN CLOSE of £440,000 on 3rd October 2019. For the value to have increased from £440,000 to £551,413 over the six years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
