ORCHARD 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 ORCHARD LODGE sales from November 1995 and April 2022 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 November 1995 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the April 2022 sale, where it falls to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.

What might ORCHARD LODGE be worth now?

ORCHARD LODGE might now be worth an estimated £585,957.

This is based on house price inflation of 13.8%, between April 2022 and December 2024, 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 13.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ORCHARD LODGE of £515,000 on 14th April 2022. For the value to have increased from £515,000 to £585,957 over the one year and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ORCHARD LODGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheshire East local authority area.
• The April 2022 sale price of £515,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ORCHARD LODGE has not materially changed since April 2022.
