42 KESTREL MEWS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 42 KESTREL MEWS sales between July 1995 and September 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 April 2010 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the September 2023 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 42 KESTREL MEWS be worth now?

42 KESTREL MEWS might now be worth an estimated £283,832.

This is based on house price inflation of 4%, between September 2023 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the West Lancashire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 42 KESTREL MEWS of £273,000 on 8th September 2023. For the value to have increased from £273,000 to £283,832 over the nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

  • The value of 42 KESTREL MEWS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Lancashire local authority area.
  • The September 2023 sale price of £273,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
  • The size, condition, and specification of 42 KESTREL MEWS has not materially changed since September 2023.
Disclaimer: Please note that this is a theoretical estimate based on assumptions which may or may not be correct. It should not be relied on for any purpose.
