TOUCHWOOD 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 two TOUCHWOOD sales from June 2004 and May 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 June 2004 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the May 2013 sale, where it falls to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might TOUCHWOOD be worth now?

TOUCHWOOD might now be worth an estimated £757,527.

This is based on house price inflation of 60.5%, between May 2013 and March 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 60.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for TOUCHWOOD of £472,000 on 16th May 2013. For the value to have increased from £472,000 to £757,527 over the twelve years and two months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of TOUCHWOOD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The May 2013 sale price of £472,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of TOUCHWOOD has not materially changed since May 2013.
