5 MEADWAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Knowsley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 MEADWAY sales between August 2004 and January 2017 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 December 2006 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it falls to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.

What might 5 MEADWAY be worth now?

5 MEADWAY might now be worth an estimated £379,054.

This is based on house price inflation of 57.9%, between January 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Knowsley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 57.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 MEADWAY of £240,000 on 27th January 2017. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £379,054 over the seven years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 MEADWAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Knowsley local authority area.
• The January 2017 sale price of £240,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 MEADWAY has not materially changed since January 2017.
