THE READING ROOM Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Gloucestershire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE READING ROOM sales from July 2010 and July 2013 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 2010 sale was for 61% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 61% below the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might THE READING ROOM be worth now?

THE READING ROOM might now be worth an estimated £592,451.

This is based on house price inflation of 88.1%, between July 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the South Gloucestershire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 88.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE READING ROOM of £315,000 on 18th July 2013. For the value to have increased from £315,000 to £592,451 over the twelve years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE READING ROOM has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Gloucestershire local authority area.
• The July 2013 sale price of £315,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE READING ROOM has not materially changed since July 2013.
