How this area has changed

Typical prices for semi-detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to September 2026 against the same twelve months back then.

Area Now 5 years ago10 years ago15 years ago20 years ago
Downham Drive – Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales Not enough sales
Postcode sector CH60 5 £330,000 £244,750 +35% since £190,000 +74% since £175,750 +88% since £175,000 +89% since
Wirral £246,250 £200,000 +23% since £159,000 +55% since £140,500 +75% since £147,500 +67% since

The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
