Henley-on-Thames: Romans reports 17% rise in property valuations over past five years

Romans has recently completed some original research into the Henley-on-Thames property market to analyse local price trends and make informed predictions about the future of Henley’s property market.

According to the research, houses for sale in Henley tend to be priced above the rest of the UK, with the average house sold at around £400,000 more than the national average.

House prices have risen more sharply in the previous year than over a long-term period, when they were rising slowly or fluctuating around the same level, says Romans. Recent property valuations on zoopla.co.uk show they have risen by 17.47% or £104,890, on average, over the past five years, and by 5.92% or £39,411 in the past 12 months. The average price paid last year was £600,609, while the average asking price was £1,384,282.

In the past 12 months, across all houses for sale in Henley-on-Thames, most were comparatively high in price for their type. The average value of detached property was £1,020,727, semi-detached was £526,207, and flats sold for an average of £367, 578, all higher than the national average. The average property value was £705,183.

“Henley has a wide appeal with a sense of community within a market town with a wide variety of places to eat, schooling and leisure facilities,” said sales manager Julian Sheppard. “It’s an affluent and desirable location with an international social calendar, and an ideal location to invest in high-value property.”
