47 HIGHER LANE 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 two 47 HIGHER LANE sales from January 2000 and October 2014 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 January 2000 sale was for 76% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 76% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it rises to 122% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 122% above the HPI.

What might 47 HIGHER LANE be worth now?

47 HIGHER LANE might now be worth an estimated £642,999.

This is based on house price inflation of 71.5%, between October 2014 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 71.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 47 HIGHER LANE of £375,000 on 30th October 2014. For the value to have increased from £375,000 to £642,999 over the eleven years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 47 HIGHER LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the St Helens local authority area.
• The October 2014 sale price of £375,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 47 HIGHER LANE has not materially changed since October 2014.
