The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Chorley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 RECTORY CLOSE sales from July 2003 and October 2016 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 2003 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the October 2016 sale, which was also at 26% above the HPI.
8 RECTORY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £253,526.
This is based on house price inflation of 39.6%, between October 2016 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Chorley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 39.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 RECTORY CLOSE of £181,550 on 31st October 2016. For the value to have increased from £181,550 to £253,526 over the nine years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
