4 LOWTHER DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Helens local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 4 LOWTHER DRIVE sales between August 2005 and March 2021 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 November 2020 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it falls to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might 4 LOWTHER DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 27.2%, between March 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the St Helens local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 27.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 LOWTHER DRIVE of £255,000 on 18th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £255,000 to £324,238 over the four years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
