1 LAUREL GROVE 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 three 1 LAUREL GROVE sales between July 2001 and May 2016 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 2006 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it rises to 29% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% above the HPI.

What might 1 LAUREL GROVE be worth now?

1 LAUREL GROVE might now be worth an estimated £551,672.

This is based on house price inflation of 45.2%, between May 2016 and December 2024, 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 45.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 LAUREL GROVE of £380,000 on 6th May 2016. For the value to have increased from £380,000 to £551,672 over the seven years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 LAUREL GROVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area.
• The May 2016 sale price of £380,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 LAUREL GROVE has not materially changed since May 2016.
