34 DODDINGTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wokingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 34 DODDINGTON CLOSE sales from May 1998 and May 2001 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 1998 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the May 2001 sale, where it falls to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.

What might 34 DODDINGTON CLOSE be worth now?

34 DODDINGTON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £398,098.

This is based on house price inflation of 206.2%, between May 2001 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Wokingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 206.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 34 DODDINGTON CLOSE of £130,000 on 4th May 2001. For the value to have increased from £130,000 to £398,098 over the 24 years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
