1 SCHOLARS MEWS 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 SCHOLARS MEWS sales from September 1999 and December 2000 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 September 1999 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the December 2000 sale, where it rises to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.

What might 1 SCHOLARS MEWS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 183.9%, between December 2000 and December 2024, 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 183.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 SCHOLARS MEWS of £330,000 on 4th December 2000. For the value to have increased from £330,000 to £936,823 over the 24 years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
