2 LIPSCOMB CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 LIPSCOMB CLOSE sales from May 1995 and January 1996 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 1995 sale was for 53% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% below the HPI over time, until the January 1996 sale, where it rises to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might 2 LIPSCOMB CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 449.4%, between January 1996 and May 2026, for 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 449.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 LIPSCOMB CLOSE of £145,000 on 5th January 1996. For the value to have increased from £145,000 to £796,559 over the 29 years and eight months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
