Land registry data shows two sales for TREE TOPS since 1st January 1995. The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average detached price in the West Berkshire local authority area for the corresponding sale date. Both of the two TREE TOPS sales were for above the average price. The average price is sourced from the Office for National Statistics' House Price Index (HPI).
Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two TREE TOPS sales from February 2024 and May 2024 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 February 2024 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the May 2024 sale, where it rises to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.
