1 OLDWOOD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 OLDWOOD sales from August 1997 and August 2002 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 August 1997 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the August 2002 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 1 OLDWOOD be worth now?

1 OLDWOOD might now be worth an estimated £835,912.

This is based on house price inflation of 135.5%, between August 2002 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 135.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 OLDWOOD of £355,000 on 1st August 2002. For the value to have increased from £355,000 to £835,912 over the 23 years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
