The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wakefield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 WALMSLEY DRIVE sales from April 2001 and August 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 April 2001 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.
8 WALMSLEY DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £251,694.
This is based on house price inflation of 37.9%, between August 2018 and June 2025, for 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).
