The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sefton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 19 BIRKEY LANE sales between July 1995 and May 2013 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 May 2003 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the May 2013 sale, where it falls to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.
19 BIRKEY LANE might now be worth an estimated £554,224.
This is based on house price inflation of 74%, between May 2013 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Sefton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 74% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 19 BIRKEY LANE of £318,500 on 9th May 2013. For the value to have increased from £318,500 to £554,224 over the ten years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
