THE OLD POST OFFICE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Vale of White Horse local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE OLD POST OFFICE sales between February 2001 and January 2018 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 2011 sale was for 122% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 122% above the HPI over time, until the January 2018 sale, where it falls to 112% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 112% above the HPI.

What might THE OLD POST OFFICE be worth now?

THE OLD POST OFFICE might now be worth an estimated £1,360,312.

This is based on house price inflation of 20.4%, between January 2018 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Vale of White Horse local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 20.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE OLD POST OFFICE of £1,130,000 on 26th January 2018. For the value to have increased from £1,130,000 to £1,360,312 over the six years and seven months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE OLD POST OFFICE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Vale of White Horse local authority area.
• The January 2018 sale price of £1,130,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE OLD POST OFFICE has not materially changed since January 2018.
