10 BOWSCALE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 10 BOWSCALE CLOSE sales between November 2000 and July 2023 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 February 2021 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it rises to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.

What might 10 BOWSCALE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 3.4%, between July 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wirral local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 10 BOWSCALE CLOSE of £247,500 on 28th July 2023. For the value to have increased from £247,500 to £255,991 over the two years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
