15 ELSTREE CLOSE 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 15 ELSTREE CLOSE sales from May 1996 and November 2005 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 May 1996 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the November 2005 sale, where it falls to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.

What might 15 ELSTREE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 101%, between November 2005 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 101% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 ELSTREE CLOSE of £415,000 on 18th November 2005. For the value to have increased from £415,000 to £834,291 over the twenty years and four months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
