The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 139 PONTEFRACT ROAD sales from September 2003 and August 2023 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 September 2003 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it falls to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.
139 PONTEFRACT ROAD might now be worth an estimated £155,661.
This is based on house price inflation of 5.5%, between August 2023 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Wakefield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
