6 BLAKE CLOSE 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 6 BLAKE CLOSE sales between July 1997 and September 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 May 2011 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 6 BLAKE CLOSE be worth now?

6 BLAKE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £212,600.

This is based on house price inflation of 44.1%, between September 2017 and February 2025, 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 44.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 BLAKE CLOSE of £147,500 on 22nd September 2017. For the value to have increased from £147,500 to £212,600 over the eight years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 BLAKE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area.
• The September 2017 sale price of £147,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
