3 BLACKDOWN 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 three 3 BLACKDOWN CLOSE sales between November 1998 and July 2006 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 August 2001 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the July 2006 sale, where it falls to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might 3 BLACKDOWN CLOSE be worth now?

3 BLACKDOWN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £459,549.

This is based on house price inflation of 64.7%, between July 2006 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 64.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 BLACKDOWN CLOSE of £279,000 on 21st July 2006. For the value to have increased from £279,000 to £459,549 over the nineteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 BLACKDOWN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area.
• The July 2006 sale price of £279,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
