RIDGEBOURNE 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 RIDGEBOURNE sales between May 1997 and April 2011 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 2002 sale was for 46% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% above the HPI over time, until the April 2011 sale, where it falls to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.

What might RIDGEBOURNE be worth now?

RIDGEBOURNE might now be worth an estimated £928,306.

This is based on house price inflation of 67.3%, between April 2011 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 67.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for RIDGEBOURNE of £555,000 on 1st April 2011. For the value to have increased from £555,000 to £928,306 over the twelve years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of RIDGEBOURNE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The April 2011 sale price of £555,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of RIDGEBOURNE has not materially changed since April 2011.
