49 MELVERLEY DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 49 MELVERLEY DRIVE sales from August 1998 and January 2018 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 August 1998 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the January 2018 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 49 MELVERLEY DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 42.3%, between January 2018 and October 2025, for detached houses, in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 42.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 49 MELVERLEY DRIVE of £250,000 on 12th January 2018. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £355,626 over the six years and three months to October 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
