127 CRABTREE LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 127 CRABTREE LANE sales from September 1995 and November 2014 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 1995 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the November 2014 sale, where it rises to 48% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% above the HPI.

What might 127 CRABTREE LANE be worth now?

127 CRABTREE LANE might now be worth an estimated £1,136,121.

This is based on house price inflation of 45.7%, between November 2014 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the St Albans local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 45.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 127 CRABTREE LANE of £780,000 on 21st November 2014. For the value to have increased from £780,000 to £1,136,121 over the nine years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 127 CRABTREE LANE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the St Albans local authority area.
• The November 2014 sale price of £780,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
