Land registry data shows two sales for 48 FOLKESTONE ROAD since 1st January 1995. The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average semi-detached price in the Sefton local authority area for the corresponding sale date.

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Sefton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 48 FOLKESTONE ROAD sales from June 1996 and October 2003 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 1996 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the October 2003 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.
48 FOLKESTONE ROAD might now be worth an estimated £238,075.
This is based on house price inflation of 126.7%, between October 2003 and February 2025, for semi-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 126.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 48 FOLKESTONE ROAD of £105,000 on 24th October 2003. For the value to have increased from £105,000 to £238,075 over the 22 years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
