FERN BANK 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 four FERN BANK sales between February 1997 and October 2012 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 March 2006 sale was for 21% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% above the HPI over time, until the October 2012 sale, where it rises to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.

What might FERN BANK be worth now?

FERN BANK might now be worth an estimated £939,812.

This is based on house price inflation of 63.4%, between October 2012 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 63.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FERN BANK of £575,000 on 8th October 2012. For the value to have increased from £575,000 to £939,812 over the thirteen years and seven months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FERN BANK has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The October 2012 sale price of £575,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FERN BANK has not materially changed since October 2012.
