The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Bury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 49 SHIPSTON CLOSE sales between June 2011 and December 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 May 2014 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the December 2018 sale, where it falls to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.
49 SHIPSTON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £282,197.
This is based on house price inflation of 44%, between December 2018 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Bury local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
