11 HALF ACRE 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 two 11 HALF ACRE sales from May 1998 and March 2011 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 May 1998 sale was for 80% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 80% above the HPI over time, until the March 2011 sale, where it falls to 38% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% above the HPI.

What might 11 HALF ACRE be worth now?

11 HALF ACRE might now be worth an estimated £1,097,040.

This is based on house price inflation of 82.8%, between March 2011 and December 2024, 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 82.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 11 HALF ACRE of £600,000 on 25th March 2011. For the value to have increased from £600,000 to £1,097,040 over the twelve years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 11 HALF ACRE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The March 2011 sale price of £600,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 11 HALF ACRE has not materially changed since March 2011.
