PIGHTLE CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two PIGHTLE CROFT sales from November 2007 and July 2019 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 November 2007 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might PIGHTLE CROFT be worth now?

PIGHTLE CROFT might now be worth an estimated £706,829.

This is based on house price inflation of 14.9%, between July 2019 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the South Oxfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 14.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for PIGHTLE CROFT of £615,000 on 1st July 2019. For the value to have increased from £615,000 to £706,829 over the six years and one month to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of PIGHTLE CROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Oxfordshire local authority area.
• The July 2019 sale price of £615,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of PIGHTLE CROFT has not materially changed since July 2019.
