The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 161 PONTEFRACT ROAD sales between April 1999 and January 2024 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 January 2015 sale was for 47% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% below the HPI over time, until the January 2024 sale, where it rises to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

161 PONTEFRACT ROAD might now be worth an estimated £133,223.
This is based on house price inflation of 8.3%, between January 2024 and May 2026, for terraced 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 8.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 161 PONTEFRACT ROAD of £123,000 on 31st January 2024. For the value to have increased from £123,000 to £133,223 over the one year and eight months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
