LEGH LODGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire East local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LEGH LODGE sales from June 2001 and August 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 June 2001 sale was for 510% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 510% above the HPI over time, until the August 2004 sale, where it rises to 595% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 595% above the HPI.

What might LEGH LODGE be worth now?

LEGH LODGE might now be worth an estimated £3,352,779.

This is based on house price inflation of 94.4%, between August 2004 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Cheshire East local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 94.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LEGH LODGE of £1,725,000 on 20th August 2004. For the value to have increased from £1,725,000 to £3,352,779 over the 21 years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LEGH LODGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheshire East local authority area.
• The August 2004 sale price of £1,725,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LEGH LODGE has not materially changed since August 2004.
