7 DICKENS DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 7 DICKENS DRIVE sales between October 1999 and July 2014 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 2007 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, which was also at 27% below the HPI.

What might 7 DICKENS DRIVE be worth now?

7 DICKENS DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £225,711.

This is based on house price inflation of 62.4%, between July 2014 and February 2025, for 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 62.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 DICKENS DRIVE of £139,000 on 4th July 2014. For the value to have increased from £139,000 to £225,711 over the eleven years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 7 DICKENS DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
