39 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 four 39 BENTON DRIVE sales between August 1998 and March 2018 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 2011 sale was for 69% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% above the HPI over time, until the March 2018 sale, where it falls to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.

What might 39 BENTON DRIVE be worth now?

39 BENTON DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £378,247.

This is based on house price inflation of 42.7%, between March 2018 and December 2024, 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 42.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 39 BENTON DRIVE of £265,000 on 9th March 2018. For the value to have increased from £265,000 to £378,247 over the five years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
