24 WESTCROFT DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 24 WESTCROFT DRIVE sales from May 2007 and October 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 2007 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

What might 24 WESTCROFT DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 59.2%, between October 2014 and March 2025, for detached houses, in the Wakefield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 59.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 24 WESTCROFT DRIVE of £161,000 on 17th October 2014. For the value to have increased from £161,000 to £256,234 over the eleven years and seven months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
