The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wirral local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 55 SPARKS LANE sales from September 2016 and June 2019 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 September 2016 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the June 2019 sale, where it rises to 28% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% above the HPI.
55 SPARKS LANE might now be worth an estimated £475,727.
This is based on house price inflation of 36.9%, between June 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wirral local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
