The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average detached price in the Wakefield local authority area for the corresponding sale date.

| Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |
|---|---|---|---|
2025 11 DEC | £462,000 | £314,219 | 47% above HPI |
2020 12 JUN | £265,000 | £236,425 | 12% above HPI |
The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 THE BYWAYS sales from June 2020 and December 2025 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 2020 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the December 2025 sale, where it rises to 47% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% above the HPI.

1 THE BYWAYS might now be worth an estimated £459,530.
This is based on house price deflation of 0.5%, between December 2025 and May 2026, for detached houses, in the Wakefield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 0.5% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 THE BYWAYS of £462,000 on 11th December 2025. For the value to have decreased from £462,000 to £459,530 over the one year and seven months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
