13 THE LIMES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 13 THE LIMES sales between July 1999 and October 2012 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 2005 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the October 2012 sale, where it falls to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.

What might 13 THE LIMES be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 70.7%, between October 2012 and February 2025, for 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 70.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 13 THE LIMES of £585,000 on 10th October 2012. For the value to have increased from £585,000 to £998,658 over the thirteen years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 13 THE LIMES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the St Albans local authority area.
• The October 2012 sale price of £585,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
