OLNEY LODGE 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 OLNEY LODGE sales from March 2004 and May 2012 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 2004 sale was for 121% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 121% above the HPI over time, until the May 2012 sale, where it rises to 180% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 180% above the HPI.

What might OLNEY LODGE be worth now?

OLNEY LODGE might now be worth an estimated £1,943,991.

This is based on house price inflation of 69%, between May 2012 and December 2024, 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 69% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for OLNEY LODGE of £1,150,000 on 25th May 2012. For the value to have increased from £1,150,000 to £1,943,991 over the eleven years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of OLNEY LODGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The May 2012 sale price of £1,150,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of OLNEY LODGE has not materially changed since May 2012.
