The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 49 CHESTNUT DRIVE sales between May 1999 and March 2017 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 August 1999 sale was for 48% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% above the HPI over time, until the March 2017 sale, where it rises to 57% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 57% above the HPI.
49 CHESTNUT DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £306,655.
This is based on house price inflation of 59.7%, between March 2017 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Wigan local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 59.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 49 CHESTNUT DRIVE of £192,000 on 17th March 2017. For the value to have increased from £192,000 to £306,655 over the eight years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
