CHESTNUTS 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 five CHESTNUTS sales between February 1995 and September 2024 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 April 2006 sale was for 52% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% above the HPI over time, until the September 2024 sale, where it rises to 83% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 83% above the HPI.

What might CHESTNUTS be worth now?

CHESTNUTS might now be worth an estimated £1,418,686.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.3%, between September 2024 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 1.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CHESTNUTS of £1,400,000 on 26th September 2024. For the value to have increased from £1,400,000 to £1,418,686 over the one year and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CHESTNUTS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wokingham local authority area.
• The September 2024 sale price of £1,400,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CHESTNUTS has not materially changed since September 2024.
