The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 LITTLETON CLOSE sales between September 2000 and March 2015 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 June 2001 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the March 2015 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.
4 LITTLETON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £359,901.
This is based on house price inflation of 60%, between March 2015 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).
