20 FORGE LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire East local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 20 FORGE LANE sales from December 2020 and October 2024 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 December 2020 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 20 FORGE LANE be worth now?
