8 PREECE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Halton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 PREECE CLOSE sales from February 1997 and April 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 February 1997 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the April 2019 sale, where it rises to 50% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% above the HPI.

What might 8 PREECE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 34.4%, between April 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Halton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 34.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 PREECE CLOSE of £342,500 on 10th April 2019. For the value to have increased from £342,500 to £460,438 over the six years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
