2 CHESTNUT DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bridgend local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 CHESTNUT DRIVE sales from May 2001 and August 2014 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 May 2001 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it rises to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.

What might 2 CHESTNUT DRIVE be worth now?

2 CHESTNUT DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £423,025.

This is based on house price inflation of 80%, between August 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Bridgend local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 80% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 CHESTNUT DRIVE of £235,000 on 22nd August 2014. For the value to have increased from £235,000 to £423,025 over the nine years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 CHESTNUT DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bridgend local authority area.
• The August 2014 sale price of £235,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 CHESTNUT DRIVE has not materially changed since August 2014.
