The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 79 CHOLMELEY ROAD sales between August 2002 and January 2011 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 2004 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the January 2011 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.
79 CHOLMELEY ROAD might now be worth an estimated £417,393.
