ASHDOWN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ASHDOWN sales from March 2009 and October 2014 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 March 2009 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it rises to 37% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% above the HPI.

What might ASHDOWN be worth now?

ASHDOWN might now be worth an estimated £1,061,690.

This is based on house price inflation of 47.5%, between October 2014 and February 2025, for 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 47.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ASHDOWN of £720,000 on 31st October 2014. For the value to have increased from £720,000 to £1,061,690 over the eleven years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ASHDOWN has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wokingham local authority area.
• The October 2014 sale price of £720,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ASHDOWN has not materially changed since October 2014.
