The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Helens local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 176 HIGHER LANE sales from August 2003 and June 2019 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 2003 sale was for 158% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 158% above the HPI over time, until the June 2019 sale, where it falls to 120% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 120% above the HPI.
176 HIGHER LANE might now be worth an estimated £638,038.
This is based on house price inflation of 46.7%, between June 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the St Helens local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 46.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 176 HIGHER LANE of £435,000 on 18th June 2019. For the value to have increased from £435,000 to £638,038 over the six years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
