4 ORWELL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire East local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 ORWELL CLOSE sales from July 1997 and August 2001 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 1997 sale was for 36% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% above the HPI over time, until the August 2001 sale, where it rises to 70% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 70% above the HPI.

What might 4 ORWELL CLOSE be worth now?

The 228.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 ORWELL CLOSE of £249,000 on 21st August 2001. For the value to have increased from £249,000 to £817,148 over the 22 years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
