55 CHESNUT GROVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 55 CHESNUT GROVE sales between May 2001 and July 2013 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 April 2004 sale was for 40% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% below the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it rises to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 55 CHESNUT GROVE be worth now?

55 CHESNUT GROVE might now be worth an estimated £246,272.

This is based on house price inflation of 64.2%, between July 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wirral local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 64.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 55 CHESNUT GROVE of £150,000 on 29th July 2013. For the value to have increased from £150,000 to £246,272 over the twelve years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 55 CHESNUT GROVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wirral local authority area.
• The July 2013 sale price of £150,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 55 CHESNUT GROVE has not materially changed since July 2013.
