The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sefton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 HESTER CLOSE sales from December 2005 and March 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 December 2005 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the March 2015 sale, where it rises to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.
5 HESTER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £487,467.
This is based on house price inflation of 64.1%, between March 2015 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Sefton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 64.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 HESTER CLOSE of £297,000 on 5th March 2015. For the value to have increased from £297,000 to £487,467 over the nine years and nine months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
