1 THE BIRCHES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Trafford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 THE BIRCHES sales from December 2015 and August 2022 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 2015 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it rises to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 1 THE BIRCHES be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 4.4%, between August 2022 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Trafford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 THE BIRCHES of £485,000 on 18th August 2022. For the value to have increased from £485,000 to £506,396 over the three years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
