2 HOUGHTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 HOUGHTON CLOSE sales from November 2001 and December 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 November 2001 sale was for 65% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 65% above the HPI over time, until the December 2012 sale, where it falls to 39% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% above the HPI.

What might 2 HOUGHTON CLOSE be worth now?

2 HOUGHTON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £597,012.

This is based on house price inflation of 70.6%, between December 2012 and February 2025, for 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 70.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 HOUGHTON CLOSE of £350,000 on 4th December 2012. For the value to have increased from £350,000 to £597,012 over the thirteen years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 HOUGHTON CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area.
• The December 2012 sale price of £350,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
