18 BRAMBLE CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bolton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 BRAMBLE CROFT sales from March 2002 and October 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 March 2002 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it falls to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.

What might 18 BRAMBLE CROFT be worth now?

18 BRAMBLE CROFT might now be worth an estimated £294,727.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.4%, between October 2024 and May 2026, for detached houses, in the Bolton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 BRAMBLE CROFT of £285,000 on 18th October 2024. For the value to have increased from £285,000 to £294,727 over the two years and five months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 18 BRAMBLE CROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bolton local authority area.
• The October 2024 sale price of £285,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
