18 SONNING DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 SONNING DRIVE sales from March 1999 and January 2013 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 1999 sale was for 55% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% above the HPI over time, until the January 2013 sale, where it falls to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.

What might 18 SONNING DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 83.6%, between January 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Bolton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 83.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 SONNING DRIVE of £240,000 on 25th January 2013. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £440,616 over the eleven years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
