HESKETH HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HESKETH HOUSE sales between November 2014 and July 2023 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 2020 sale was for 56% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% above the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it falls to 33% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% above the HPI.

What might HESKETH HOUSE be worth now?

HESKETH HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £484,948.

This is based on house price inflation of 4.9%, between July 2023 and February 2025, for 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 4.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HESKETH HOUSE of £462,500 on 14th July 2023. For the value to have increased from £462,500 to £484,948 over the two years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HESKETH HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Lancashire local authority area.
• The July 2023 sale price of £462,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HESKETH HOUSE has not materially changed since July 2023.
