44 THE NOOK 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 44 THE NOOK sales between May 1997 and May 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 January 2008 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the May 2019 sale, where it rises to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.

What might 44 THE NOOK be worth now?

44 THE NOOK might now be worth an estimated £376,557.

This is based on house price inflation of 36.9%, between May 2019 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 36.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 44 THE NOOK of £275,000 on 17th May 2019. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £376,557 over the four years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 44 THE NOOK has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area.
• The May 2019 sale price of £275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 44 THE NOOK has not materially changed since May 2019.
