3 ABBEY MEWS 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 3 ABBEY MEWS sales from December 1999 and September 2013 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 1999 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the September 2013 sale, where it falls to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.

What might 3 ABBEY MEWS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 70.3%, between September 2013 and December 2024, 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 70.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 ABBEY MEWS of £167,500 on 27th September 2013. For the value to have increased from £167,500 to £285,243 over the ten years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
