The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 15 LARKS HILL sales from August 2003 and February 2020 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 August 2003 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it falls to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.
15 LARKS HILL might now be worth an estimated £198,854.
This is based on house price inflation of 37.1%, between February 2020 and February 2025, 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).
The 37.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 LARKS HILL of £145,000 on 28th February 2020. For the value to have increased from £145,000 to £198,854 over the five years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
