PENHILL 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 PENHILL sales from May 1998 and January 2015 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 May 1998 sale was for 49% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 49% above the HPI over time, until the January 2015 sale, where it falls to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.

What might PENHILL be worth now?

PENHILL might now be worth an estimated £868,589.

This is based on house price inflation of 40.1%, between January 2015 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 40.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for PENHILL of £620,000 on 16th January 2015. For the value to have increased from £620,000 to £868,589 over the eight years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of PENHILL has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The January 2015 sale price of £620,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of PENHILL has not materially changed since January 2015.
