4 SHIRE COTTAGES 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 4 SHIRE COTTAGES sales from August 2002 and August 2018 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 August 2002 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it falls to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.

What might 4 SHIRE COTTAGES be worth now?

4 SHIRE COTTAGES might now be worth an estimated £779,018.

This is based on house price inflation of 16.3%, between August 2018 and March 2025, 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 16.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 SHIRE COTTAGES of £670,000 on 7th August 2018. For the value to have increased from £670,000 to £779,018 over the seven years and five months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 SHIRE COTTAGES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The August 2018 sale price of £670,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
