6 ORWELL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 6 ORWELL CLOSE sales between September 1995 and December 2019 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 July 2012 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the December 2019 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.

What might 6 ORWELL CLOSE be worth now?

6 ORWELL CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £170,408.

This is based on house price inflation of 36.3%, between December 2019 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Wakefield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 36.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 ORWELL CLOSE of £125,000 on 18th December 2019. For the value to have increased from £125,000 to £170,408 over the six years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 ORWELL CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
