How Benedict Street, Bootle prices moved
The chart tracks the median Benedict Street, Bootle house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2001 to 2016. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2000s | 7 | £53,200 | £96,915 |
| 2010s | 1 | £46,000 | £64,860 |
The highest yearly median on record for Benedict Street, Bootle is £66,500 in 2007; the lowest is £23,250 in 2001. Across the full 16-year record the cash median has moved from £23,250 to £46,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £45,595, so the real change over the whole record is +40.8% — about +2.31% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: -23.3% in cash against -39.8% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Benedict Street, Bootle is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 107 | 98.2% | £50,000 | £9,000 – £115,000 |

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Benedict Street, Bootle
27 of the sales on record are leasehold and 82 freehold — 24.8% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.
The median leasehold sale is £53,500 and the median freehold sale £46,000 — a gap of -14.0%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 27 | 24.8% | £53,500 |
| Freehold | 82 | 75.2% | £46,000 |
A further 27 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.
Section 09
How Benedict Street, Bootle compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Benedict Street, Bootle sits below that national figure — -68.3%.
Within Bootle the street ranks 379 of 471 by median price, and its median is below the town figure of £72,000 (-30.6%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £575 per square metre, across 32 of the 109 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
The full range on record runs from £9,000 to £115,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Benedict Street, Bootle?
The median price paid in Benedict Street, Bootle across every sale on the register is £50,000. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.
How many homes have sold in Benedict Street, Bootle?
109 sales are on record for Benedict Street, Bootle, the most recent completing on 31 Jul 2025. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
Have Benedict Street, Bootle house prices actually risen?
In cash, the median rose -23.3% between 2006 and 2016. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -39.8%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Benedict Street, Bootle house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £66,500, set in 2007. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
What is the price per square metre in Benedict Street, Bootle?
£575 per square metre, from the 32 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 31 Jul 2025. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
