THE RIDINGS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Vale of White Horse local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE RIDINGS sales from April 1997 and November 2004 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 April 1997 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the November 2004 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might THE RIDINGS be worth now?

THE RIDINGS might now be worth an estimated £471,757.

This is based on house price inflation of 94.5%, between November 2004 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Vale of White Horse local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 94.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE RIDINGS of £242,500 on 15th November 2004. For the value to have increased from £242,500 to £471,757 over the 21 years and five months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE RIDINGS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Vale of White Horse local authority area.
• The November 2004 sale price of £242,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE RIDINGS has not materially changed since November 2004.
