The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 DORCHESTER PARK sales from May 2003 and April 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 2003 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it falls to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.
26 DORCHESTER PARK might now be worth an estimated £405,099.
This is based on house price inflation of 63.1%, between April 2014 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 63.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 DORCHESTER PARK of £248,350 on 30th April 2014. For the value to have increased from £248,350 to £405,099 over the eleven years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
