The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Preston local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 79 WATLING STREET ROAD sales from September 1997 and September 2004 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 September 1997 sale was for 39% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% above the HPI over time, until the September 2004 sale, where it rises to 86% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 86% above the HPI.
79 WATLING STREET ROAD might now be worth an estimated £360,704.
