How Shooters Hill, Reading prices moved
The chart tracks the median Shooters Hill, Reading house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1999 to 2023. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 1 | £119,975 | £266,401 |
| 2000s | 2 | £196,500 | £357,965 |
| 2010s | 2 | £320,250 | £451,553 |
| 2020s | 3 | £805,000 | £822,500 |
The highest yearly median on record for Shooters Hill, Reading is £837,000 in 2020; the lowest is £119,975 in 1999. Across the full 25-year record the cash median has moved from £119,975 to £740,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £244,458, so the real change over the whole record is +227.1% — about +5.06% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +276.6% in cash against +115.3% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

Homes that sold twice
These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Shooters Hill, Reading values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Shooters Hill, Reading is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flat or maisonette | 63 | 52.9% | £240,000 | £87,700 – £415,000 |
| Detached | 33 | 27.7% | £570,000 | £173,000 – £1,825,000 |
| Semi-detached | 14 | 11.8% | £195,000 | £64,700 – £850,000 |
| Terraced | 9 | 7.6% | £600,000 | £206,500 – £1,100,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Shooters Hill, Reading
65 of the sales on record are leasehold and 54 freehold — 54.6% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.
The median leasehold sale is £239,815 and the median freehold sale £577,500 — a gap of +140.8%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 65 | 54.6% | £239,815 |
| Freehold | 54 | 45.4% | £577,500 |
| New build | 1 | 0.8% | £345,000 |
| Existing home | 118 | 99.2% | £287,500 |
New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +20.0%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.
A further 4 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.
Section 09
How Shooters Hill, Reading compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Shooters Hill, Reading sits above that national figure — +84.1%.
Within Reading the street ranks 1341 of 3510 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £220,000 (+31.8%).
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published here. An estimate would be a guess, and the archive does not publish guesses.
The full range on record runs from £64,700 to £1,825,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Shooters Hill, Reading?
The median price paid in Shooters Hill, Reading across every sale on the register is £290,000. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.
How many homes have sold in Shooters Hill, Reading?
119 sales are on record for Shooters Hill, Reading, the most recent completing on 17 Oct 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.

When were Shooters Hill, Reading house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £837,000, set in 2020. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
What is the price per square metre in Shooters Hill, Reading?
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 17 Oct 2025. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
