8 SEVERN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Halton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 SEVERN CLOSE sales from September 2007 and December 2015 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 2007 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the December 2015 sale, where it rises to 23% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% above the HPI.

What might 8 SEVERN CLOSE be worth now?

8 SEVERN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £235,964.

This is based on house price inflation of 60%, between December 2015 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Halton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 60% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 SEVERN CLOSE of £147,500 on 18th December 2015. For the value to have increased from £147,500 to £235,964 over the ten years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 SEVERN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Halton local authority area.
