OLD POST OFFICE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Berkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five OLD POST OFFICE sales between September 2002 and September 2021 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 July 2007 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.

What might OLD POST OFFICE be worth now?

OLD POST OFFICE might now be worth an estimated £452,022.

This is based on house price inflation of 13%, between September 2021 and June 2025, for semi-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 13% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for OLD POST OFFICE of £400,000 on 23rd September 2021. For the value to have increased from £400,000 to £452,022 over the four years and three months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of OLD POST OFFICE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the West Berkshire local authority area.
• The September 2021 sale price of £400,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of OLD POST OFFICE has not materially changed since September 2021.
