4 ELMCROFT LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sefton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 ELMCROFT LANE sales between February 2003 and May 2023 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 2012 sale was for 114% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 114% above the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it rises to 119% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 119% above the HPI.

What might 4 ELMCROFT LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 6.3%, between May 2023 and February 2025, 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 6.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 ELMCROFT LANE of £785,000 on 5th May 2023. For the value to have increased from £785,000 to £834,092 over the two years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 ELMCROFT LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Sefton local authority area.
