2 HORNBEAM CLOSE 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 three 2 HORNBEAM CLOSE sales between September 1996 and August 2012 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 2003 sale was for 44% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% above the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it falls to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.

What might 2 HORNBEAM CLOSE be worth now?

2 HORNBEAM CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £310,699.

This is based on house price inflation of 72.7%, between August 2012 and February 2025, 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 72.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 HORNBEAM CLOSE of £179,950 on 10th August 2012. For the value to have increased from £179,950 to £310,699 over the thirteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
