LEGH HOUSE FARM 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 LEGH HOUSE FARM sales between June 2003 and March 2021 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 June 2015 sale was for 135% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 135% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to 174% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 174% above the HPI.

What might LEGH HOUSE FARM be worth now?

LEGH HOUSE FARM might now be worth an estimated £1,010,735.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.8%, between March 2021 and December 2024, 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 21.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LEGH HOUSE FARM of £830,000 on 17th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £830,000 to £1,010,735 over the two years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LEGH HOUSE FARM has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Lancashire local authority area.
• The March 2021 sale price of £830,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LEGH HOUSE FARM has not materially changed since March 2021.
