2 BOWEN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Halton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 BOWEN CLOSE sales from August 1997 and March 2010 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 1997 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the March 2010 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 2 BOWEN CLOSE be worth now?

2 BOWEN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £272,629.

This is based on house price inflation of 67.3%, between March 2010 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Halton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 67.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 BOWEN CLOSE of £163,000 on 3rd March 2010. For the value to have increased from £163,000 to £272,629 over the fifteen years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 BOWEN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Halton local authority area.
• The March 2010 sale price of £163,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
