1 THE CHESTNUTS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 THE CHESTNUTS sales between December 2001 and February 2014 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 September 2012 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the February 2014 sale, where it rises to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 1 THE CHESTNUTS be worth now?

1 THE CHESTNUTS might now be worth an estimated £349,962.

This is based on house price inflation of 69.1%, between February 2014 and February 2025, 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 69.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 THE CHESTNUTS of £207,000 on 10th February 2014. For the value to have increased from £207,000 to £349,962 over the eleven years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 THE CHESTNUTS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
• The February 2014 sale price of £207,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 THE CHESTNUTS has not materially changed since February 2014.
