The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Reading local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six 8 HIRSTWOOD sales between February 1995 and November 2020 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 June 2014 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks in line HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, which was also at roughly the same level as the HPI.

What might 8 HIRSTWOOD be worth now?
