1 WORDSWORTH AVENUE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 WORDSWORTH AVENUE sales between October 2004 and January 2024 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 April 2012 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the January 2024 sale, where it falls to 34% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% above the HPI.

What might 1 WORDSWORTH AVENUE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 6.9%, between January 2024 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Wigan local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 6.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 WORDSWORTH AVENUE of £245,000 on 24th January 2024. For the value to have increased from £245,000 to £261,963 over the eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
