The two 17 THISTLEDOWN CLOSE sales from January 1996 and June 2009 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the January 1996 sale was for 51% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% above the HPI over time, until the June 2009 sale, which was also at 51% above the HPI.

What might 17 THISTLEDOWN CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 87.5%, between June 2009 and March 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).
