SOWTON Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SOWTON sales from July 2003 and September 2014 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 July 2003 sale was for 72% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 72% above the HPI over time, until the September 2014 sale, where it falls to 55% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 55% above the HPI.

What might SOWTON be worth now?

SOWTON might now be worth an estimated £778,836.

This is based on house price inflation of 49.8%, between September 2014 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Wokingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 49.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SOWTON of £520,000 on 25th September 2014. For the value to have increased from £520,000 to £778,836 over the eleven years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SOWTON has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wokingham local authority area.
• The September 2014 sale price of £520,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SOWTON has not materially changed since September 2014.
