46 SHAFTESBURY AVENUE 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 46 SHAFTESBURY AVENUE sales between July 2007 and April 2023 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the April 2021 sale was for 45% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% above the HPI over time, until the April 2023 sale, where it rises to 50% above the HPI.
