32 BENTON DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 32 BENTON DRIVE sales between June 1998 and August 2007 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 May 2002 sale was for 56% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% above the HPI over time, until the August 2007 sale, where it falls to 35% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% above the HPI.

What might 32 BENTON DRIVE be worth now?

32 BENTON DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £350,165.

This is based on house price inflation of 54.9%, between August 2007 and February 2025, for semi-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 54.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 32 BENTON DRIVE of £226,000 on 15th August 2007. For the value to have increased from £226,000 to £350,165 over the eighteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
