17 CLAY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 CLAY CLOSE sales from January 1996 and August 2016 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 January 1996 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it rises to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.

What might 17 CLAY CLOSE be worth now?

17 CLAY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £536,909.

This is based on house price inflation of 25.7%, between August 2016 and May 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the West Berkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 25.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 CLAY CLOSE of £427,000 on 19th August 2016. For the value to have increased from £427,000 to £536,909 over the ten years and three months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 17 CLAY CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The August 2016 sale price of £427,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
