281 OLDHAM ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Oldham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 281 OLDHAM ROAD sales from March 1995 and April 1996 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 1995 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the April 1996 sale, where it rises to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.

What might 281 OLDHAM ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 500.4%, between April 1996 and May 2026, for terraced houses, in the Oldham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 500.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 281 OLDHAM ROAD of £35,000 on 12th April 1996. For the value to have increased from £35,000 to £210,142 over the 29 years and eleven months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
