18 WISTERIA DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Blackburn with Darwen local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 WISTERIA DRIVE sales between October 1997 and February 2017 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 2004 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the February 2017 sale, where it falls to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might 18 WISTERIA DRIVE be worth now?

18 WISTERIA DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £195,531.

This is based on house price inflation of 56.4%, between February 2017 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Blackburn with Darwen local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 56.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 WISTERIA DRIVE of £125,000 on 17th February 2017. For the value to have increased from £125,000 to £195,531 over the six years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
