3 WOOD LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Trafford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 WOOD LANE sales from October 1997 and July 1998 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 October 1997 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the July 1998 sale, where it rises to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.

What might 3 WOOD LANE be worth now?

3 WOOD LANE might now be worth an estimated £972,031.

This is based on house price inflation of 455.4%, between July 1998 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Trafford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 455.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 WOOD LANE of £175,000 on 8th July 1998. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £972,031 over the 27 years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 WOOD LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Trafford local authority area.
