16 BARKHAM MEWS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 BARKHAM MEWS sales from October 2004 and May 2007 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 October 2004 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the May 2007 sale, where it rises to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might 16 BARKHAM MEWS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 79.1%, between May 2007 and July 2025, for semi-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 79.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 BARKHAM MEWS of £249,950 on 21st May 2007. For the value to have increased from £249,950 to £447,758 over the seventeen years and ten months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
