69 GAINSBOROUGH ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 69 GAINSBOROUGH ROAD sales between March 1997 and March 2005 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 1999 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the March 2005 sale, where it rises to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 69 GAINSBOROUGH ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 109.2%, between March 2005 and July 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Reading local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 109.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 69 GAINSBOROUGH ROAD of £185,000 on 13th March 2005. For the value to have increased from £185,000 to £386,942 over the nineteen years and eight months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
