BRAMBLE COTTAGE 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 BRAMBLE COTTAGE sales between June 1997 and October 2018 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 2000 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it falls to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might BRAMBLE COTTAGE be worth now?

BRAMBLE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £784,441.

This is based on house price inflation of 17.3%, between October 2018 and February 2025, 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 17.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BRAMBLE COTTAGE of £669,000 on 26th October 2018. For the value to have increased from £669,000 to £784,441 over the seven years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BRAMBLE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The October 2018 sale price of £669,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
