159 COMMERCIAL ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Kirklees local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 159 COMMERCIAL ROAD sales between August 1997 and December 2001 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 1998 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the December 2001 sale, which was also at 4% above the HPI.

What might 159 COMMERCIAL ROAD be worth now?

159 COMMERCIAL ROAD might now be worth an estimated £218,574.

This is based on house price inflation of 270.5%, between December 2001 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Kirklees local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 270.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 159 COMMERCIAL ROAD of £59,000 on 7th December 2001. For the value to have increased from £59,000 to £218,574 over the 24 years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 159 COMMERCIAL ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Kirklees local authority area.
• The December 2001 sale price of £59,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
