1 HAY ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 HAY ROAD sales from September 2009 and March 2012 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 September 2009 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the March 2012 sale, where it falls to 38% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% below the HPI.

What might 1 HAY ROAD be worth now?

1 HAY ROAD might now be worth an estimated £440,030.

This is based on house price inflation of 76.4%, between March 2012 and July 2025, for detached houses, in the Reading local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 76.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 HAY ROAD of £249,500 on 1st March 2012. For the value to have increased from £249,500 to £440,030 over the twelve years and eight months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 HAY ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Reading local authority area.
