8 ORCHARD CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 ORCHARD CROFT sales from October 1998 and August 2023 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 October 1998 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it rises to 60% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 60% above the HPI.

What might 8 ORCHARD CROFT be worth now?
