1 BLACKDOWN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 BLACKDOWN CLOSE sales from January 1999 and April 2004 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 January 1999 sale was for 56% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% above the HPI over time, until the April 2004 sale, where it falls to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.

What might 1 BLACKDOWN CLOSE be worth now?

1 BLACKDOWN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £621,018.

This is based on house price inflation of 95.9%, between April 2004 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 95.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 BLACKDOWN CLOSE of £317,000 on 2nd April 2004. For the value to have increased from £317,000 to £621,018 over the 21 years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 BLACKDOWN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area.
• The April 2004 sale price of £317,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 BLACKDOWN CLOSE has not materially changed since April 2004.
