1 LINDEN LEA Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Blackburn with Darwen local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 LINDEN LEA sales between July 2003 and May 2017 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 December 2011 sale was for 36% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% above the HPI over time, until the May 2017 sale, where it falls to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.

What might 1 LINDEN LEA be worth now?

1 LINDEN LEA might now be worth an estimated £233,379.

This is based on house price inflation of 50.6%, between May 2017 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Blackburn with Darwen local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 50.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 LINDEN LEA of £154,950 on 26th May 2017. For the value to have increased from £154,950 to £233,379 over the six years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
