3 LEVENS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Lancaster local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 LEVENS CLOSE sales between April 1996 and May 2004 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 December 2000 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the May 2004 sale, where it rises to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.

What might 3 LEVENS CLOSE be worth now?

3 LEVENS CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £311,073.

This is based on house price inflation of 88.5%, between May 2004 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Lancaster local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 88.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 LEVENS CLOSE of £165,000 on 12th May 2004. For the value to have increased from £165,000 to £311,073 over the 21 years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 LEVENS CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Lancaster local authority area.
• The May 2004 sale price of £165,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
