3 GAYTON 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 3 GAYTON CLOSE sales from March 2017 and August 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 March 2017 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it rises to 2% above the HPI.
