THE CYGNETS 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 three THE CYGNETS sales between March 1997 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 August 2002 sale was for 81% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 81% above the HPI over time, until the September 2014 sale, where it rises to 96% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 96% above the HPI.

What might THE CYGNETS be worth now?

THE CYGNETS might now be worth an estimated £1,381,362.

This is based on house price inflation of 45.4%, between September 2014 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 45.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE CYGNETS of £950,000 on 22nd September 2014. For the value to have increased from £950,000 to £1,381,362 over the eleven years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE CYGNETS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The September 2014 sale price of £950,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE CYGNETS has not materially changed since September 2014.
