LINDEN HOUSE 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 LINDEN HOUSE sales from August 2011 and September 2018 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 August 2011 sale was for 148% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 148% above the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it falls to 120% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 120% above the HPI.

What might LINDEN HOUSE be worth now?

LINDEN HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £939,689.

This is based on house price inflation of 34.2%, between September 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 34.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LINDEN HOUSE of £700,000 on 7th September 2018. For the value to have increased from £700,000 to £939,689 over the five years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LINDEN HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area.
• The September 2018 sale price of £700,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
