MEADOW SWEET 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 two MEADOW SWEET sales from January 1999 and December 2023 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 January 1999 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the December 2023 sale, where it falls to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.

What might MEADOW SWEET be worth now?

MEADOW SWEET might now be worth an estimated £811,286.

This is based on house price inflation of 4%, between December 2023 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 4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MEADOW SWEET of £780,000 on 13th December 2023. For the value to have increased from £780,000 to £811,286 over the two years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MEADOW SWEET has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The December 2023 sale price of £780,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MEADOW SWEET has not materially changed since December 2023.
