221 TOWNGATE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 221 TOWNGATE sales between August 1996 and May 2019 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 June 1999 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the May 2019 sale, where it falls to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.

What might 221 TOWNGATE be worth now?

221 TOWNGATE might now be worth an estimated £255,307.

This is based on house price inflation of 40.7%, between May 2019 and August 2025, for semi-detached 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 40.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 221 TOWNGATE of £181,500 on 31st May 2019. For the value to have increased from £181,500 to £255,307 over the five years and nine months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 221 TOWNGATE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wakefield local authority area.
• The May 2019 sale price of £181,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 221 TOWNGATE has not materially changed since May 2019.
