25 LONGFELLOW CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Knowsley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 25 LONGFELLOW CLOSE sales from May 2004 and October 2014 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 2004 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it rises to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.

What might 25 LONGFELLOW CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 73.2%, between October 2014 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Knowsley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
