17 CHESNUT GROVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 17 CHESNUT GROVE sales between May 2001 and July 2003 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 2002 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the July 2003 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 17 CHESNUT GROVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 138.2%, between July 2003 and June 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Wirral local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 138.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 CHESNUT GROVE of £72,700 on 29th July 2003. For the value to have increased from £72,700 to £173,135 over the 22 years and one month to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
