15 THE BIRCHES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 15 THE BIRCHES sales from September 2014 and January 2017 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 2014 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it rises to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.

What might 15 THE BIRCHES be worth now?

15 THE BIRCHES might now be worth an estimated £500,426.

This is based on house price inflation of 17.7%, between January 2017 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the South Oxfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 17.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 THE BIRCHES of £425,000 on 6th January 2017. For the value to have increased from £425,000 to £500,426 over the seven years and seven months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 15 THE BIRCHES has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the South Oxfordshire local authority area.
• The January 2017 sale price of £425,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 15 THE BIRCHES has not materially changed since January 2017.
