IVY 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 four IVY COTTAGE sales between October 1996 and July 2006 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 September 2001 sale was for 44% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% above the HPI over time, until the July 2006 sale, where it rises to 50% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% above the HPI.

What might IVY COTTAGE be worth now?

IVY COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,054,882.

This is based on house price inflation of 90.1%, between July 2006 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 90.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for IVY COTTAGE of £555,000 on 12th July 2006. For the value to have increased from £555,000 to £1,054,882 over the nineteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of IVY COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The July 2006 sale price of £555,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of IVY COTTAGE has not materially changed since July 2006.
