168 GATHURST ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Wigan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 168 GATHURST ROAD sales between January 1996 and August 2007 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 July 2000 sale was for 46% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% above the HPI over time, until the August 2007 sale, where it falls to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.

What might 168 GATHURST ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 50.1%, between August 2007 and July 2025, for terraced houses, in the Wigan local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 50.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 168 GATHURST ROAD of £125,000 on 31st August 2007. For the value to have increased from £125,000 to £187,640 over the eighteen years and one month to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 168 GATHURST ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Wigan local authority area.
• The August 2007 sale price of £125,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
