1 BOWEN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Halton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 BOWEN CLOSE sales between November 1997 and January 2025 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 July 2017 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the January 2025 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 1 BOWEN CLOSE be worth now?

1 BOWEN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £282,405.

This is based on house price inflation of 4.6%, between January 2025 and April 2026, for 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 4.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 BOWEN CLOSE of £270,000 on 10th January 2025. For the value to have increased from £270,000 to £282,405 over the nine months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 BOWEN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Halton local authority area.
