17 LAUREL GROVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 17 LAUREL GROVE sales between September 1995 and May 2007 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 2002 sale was for 50% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% above the HPI over time, until the May 2007 sale, where it falls to 33% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% above the HPI.

What might 17 LAUREL GROVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 58.5%, between May 2007 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 58.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 LAUREL GROVE of £217,500 on 4th May 2007. For the value to have increased from £217,500 to £344,687 over the sixteen years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
