1 STUART DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 STUART DRIVE sales between July 2004 and September 2020 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 June 2016 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it rises to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 1 STUART DRIVE be worth now?

1 STUART DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £691,028.

This is based on house price inflation of 12.4%, between September 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the North Hertfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 12.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 STUART DRIVE of £615,000 on 23rd September 2020. For the value to have increased from £615,000 to £691,028 over the five years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 STUART DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The September 2020 sale price of £615,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 STUART DRIVE has not materially changed since September 2020.
