Our take · opinion, not advice
Our take on L23: steady sales, so price from the evidence
At around 28 sales a month, L23 ticks along steadily, a pace that gives buyers and sellers something to compare, without a year-on-year figure we would stand behind.
If you are thinking of selling, L23 buyers have mostly paid between £164,500 and £452,800, so find the sold homes closest to yours and price against those; buyers can compare homes at this pace but are not spoilt for choice.
Sell houseIf you are looking to buy, typical prices in L23 sit close to the UK average, so use the sold range on this page as your yardstick.
On any L23 home we would check what has been applied for nearby (946 applications on record within 500 m), flood risk over the long term and council tax (Band D is £2,583 a year), and ask a conveyancer to read the title.
The free L23 OfferCheck pulls sold prices, flood, crime, planning, council tax and schools into one sourced page; the Report says which matter for the home you have in mind.

These are Sefton's charges for 2026-27, the authority L23 falls in, not an estimate for any individual home. A property's band is set by the Valuation Office Agency and we never guess it; look up a band on GOV.UK and read your row. Bands reflect what a home was worth on 1 April 1991, not today.

Read the detail
Across the 12 sampled L23 postcodes, deprivation runs decile 3 to decile 9, with a median of decile 6 of 10: where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived.
L23 7TN, the sampled postcode sitting at that median: On the English Indices of Deprivation 2025, this postcode falls in decile 6 of 10, where 1 is among the most deprived 10% of England and 10 the least deprived. It's area context for the wider neighbourhood, not a judgement on any individual home.
Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0 (English Indices of Deprivation 2025, MHCLG). Deprivation is published for small areas (LSOAs), not for postcode districts, so L23 spans several. We sampled 12 postcodes in L23: the ones with the most recent recorded sales, up to a limit of 12. That is a convenience sample, not a random one, so it leans toward streets where homes are changing hands. 12 returned a row. It is context for the neighbourhood, never a judgement on any individual home. How we choose the sample.

Cost to run
Two sources, one table
What it costs to run a home in L23, band by band
Sefton's council tax for 2026-27 set against the L23 median sold price of £265,000 across 250 recorded sales: the annual running cost beside the purchase price, which neither source shows on its own.
| Band | 1991 valueVOA basis | A yearSefton | A month÷ 12 | Of the median÷ £265,000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | up to £40,000 | £1,722 | £144 | 0.65% |
| B | £40,001–£52,000 | £2,009 | £167 | 0.76% |
| C | £52,001–£68,000 | £2,296 | £191 | 0.87% |
| D | £68,001–£88,000 | £2,583 | £215 | 0.97% |
| E | £88,001–£120,000 | £3,157 | £263 | 1.19% |
| F | £120,001–£160,000 | £3,731 | £311 | 1.41% |

| H | over £320,000 | £5,166 | £431 | 1.95% |
The last column is the band's annual charge divided by the L23 median sold price. A comparison of two published figures, not a rate anyone charges. It is not a mapping from price to band: a band records what a home was worth on 1 April 1991 and is set by the Valuation Office Agency, so it cannot be worked out from a 2020s sale price. Look up a specific band on GOV.UK. Instalment counts vary by authority, so the monthly column is simply the year over twelve.
