2 GATCOMBE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 GATCOMBE CLOSE sales from November 1996 and January 2015 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 November 1996 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the January 2015 sale, where it falls to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.

What might 2 GATCOMBE CLOSE be worth now?

2 GATCOMBE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £376,486.

This is based on house price inflation of 38.4%, between January 2015 and June 2025, for terraced 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 38.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 GATCOMBE CLOSE of £272,000 on 9th January 2015. For the value to have increased from £272,000 to £376,486 over the nine years and seven months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 GATCOMBE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The January 2015 sale price of £272,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
