The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 3 WOOD SORREL WAY sales between November 1997 and October 2019 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 July 2012 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the October 2019 sale, where it rises to 26% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% above the HPI.
3 WOOD SORREL WAY might now be worth an estimated £388,336.
This is based on house price inflation of 43.8%, between October 2019 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wigan local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
