How Hamnett Road, Prescot prices moved
The chart tracks the median Hamnett Road, Prescot house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2006. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 3 | £59,950 | £133,117 |
| 2000s | 3 | £84,475 | £153,889 |
The highest yearly median on record for Hamnett Road, Prescot is £151,750 in 2006; the lowest is £58,473 in 2000. Across the full 11-year record the cash median has moved from £58,853 to £151,750.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £127,666, so the real change over the whole record is +111.6% — about +7.78% 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: +157.8% in cash against +111.6% 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.

Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

Section 04
What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Hamnett Road, Prescot 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-detached | 63 | 78.8% | £72,950 | £51,250 – £212,000 |
| Detached | 17 | 21.3% | £87,500 | £61,950 – £215,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Hamnett Road, Prescot
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 80 freehold — 0.0% 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.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 80 | 100.0% | £80,475 |
| New build | 29 | 36.3% | £61,950 |
| Existing home | 51 | 63.7% | £125,000 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -50.4%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.
A further 1 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.

Living in Hamnett Road, Prescot
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Knowsley, 58.9% of 83,978 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 2.7% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Knowsley at £829 a month as of Jun 2026 — £582 for a one-bedroom home and £898 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £80,475 here, that rent is a gross yield of 12.36% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.
Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of L34, 151 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 46 violent, 0 burglary, 0 vehicle-related and 18 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is about typical.
Against the 154,519 residents the 2021 census counted in Knowsley, that is 0.98 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.
A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Hamnett Road, Prescot?

When were Hamnett Road, Prescot house prices at their highest?

What is the price per square metre in Hamnett Road, Prescot?
£921 per square metre, from the 10 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 11 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.
