1 DICKENS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Knowsley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 DICKENS CLOSE sales from July 2004 and April 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 July 2004 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the April 2024 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.

What might 1 DICKENS CLOSE be worth now?
