3 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 3 THE BIRCHES sales from January 2003 and February 2010 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 2003 sale was for 51% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% above the HPI over time, until the February 2010 sale, where it falls to 39% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% above the HPI.

What might 3 THE BIRCHES be worth now?

3 THE BIRCHES might now be worth an estimated £489,490.

This is based on house price inflation of 61.9%, between February 2010 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 61.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 THE BIRCHES of £302,350 on 1st February 2010. For the value to have increased from £302,350 to £489,490 over the fourteen years and eight months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 THE BIRCHES has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the South Oxfordshire local authority area.
• The February 2010 sale price of £302,350 represented a fair market value for the property.
