The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 49 AMBERGATE sales from February 1999 and August 2002 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 February 1999 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the August 2002 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
49 AMBERGATE might now be worth an estimated £190,791.
This is based on house price inflation of 185%, between August 2002 and February 2025, for semi-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 185% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 49 AMBERGATE of £66,950 on 9th August 2002. For the value to have increased from £66,950 to £190,791 over the 23 years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
