LINCHFIELD 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 LINCHFIELD sales from September 1998 and July 2017 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 September 1998 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the July 2017 sale, where it rises to 31% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% above the HPI.

What might LINCHFIELD be worth now?

LINCHFIELD might now be worth an estimated £659,346.

This is based on house price inflation of 25.6%, between July 2017 and June 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 25.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LINCHFIELD of £525,000 on 26th July 2017. For the value to have increased from £525,000 to £659,346 over the eight years and one month to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LINCHFIELD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wokingham local authority area.
• The July 2017 sale price of £525,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LINCHFIELD has not materially changed since July 2017.
