The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 16 HIGHFIELD ROAD sales between February 1995 and March 2019 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 March 2016 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the March 2019 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.
16 HIGHFIELD ROAD might now be worth an estimated £221,808.
This is based on house price inflation of 36.1%, between March 2019 and February 2025, for 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 36.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 HIGHFIELD ROAD of £163,000 on 28th March 2019. For the value to have increased from £163,000 to £221,808 over the six years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
