1 VICARAGE CLOSE 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 VICARAGE CLOSE sales from December 2011 and November 2019 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 December 2011 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the November 2019 sale, where it rises to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.

What might 1 VICARAGE CLOSE be worth now?

1 VICARAGE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £730,896.

This is based on house price inflation of 5.9%, between November 2019 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 5.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 VICARAGE CLOSE of £690,000 on 8th November 2019. For the value to have increased from £690,000 to £730,896 over the four years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
