12 ROSECROFT LANE 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 12 ROSECROFT LANE sales from June 2007 and December 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 June 2007 sale was for 53% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% below the HPI over time, until the December 2011 sale, where it rises to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.

What might 12 ROSECROFT LANE be worth now?

12 ROSECROFT LANE might now be worth an estimated £585,396.

This is based on house price inflation of 70.9%, between December 2011 and March 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 70.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 ROSECROFT LANE of £342,500 on 2nd December 2011. For the value to have increased from £342,500 to £585,396 over the fourteen years and nine months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 12 ROSECROFT LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area.
• The December 2011 sale price of £342,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
