19 FORSTER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Lancaster local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 19 FORSTER CLOSE sales from August 2017 and December 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 August 2017 sale was for 51% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% below the HPI over time, until the December 2019 sale, where it rises to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

What might 19 FORSTER CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 28.2%, between December 2019 and July 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Lancaster local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 28.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 19 FORSTER CLOSE of £139,000 on 20th December 2019. For the value to have increased from £139,000 to £178,202 over the six years and five months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
