136 THE RIDGEWAY 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 136 THE RIDGEWAY sales from December 2009 and February 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 December 2009 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the February 2011 sale, where it rises to 29% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% above the HPI.

What might 136 THE RIDGEWAY be worth now?

136 THE RIDGEWAY might now be worth an estimated £983,717.

This is based on house price inflation of 85.6%, between February 2011 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 85.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 136 THE RIDGEWAY of £530,000 on 25th February 2011. For the value to have increased from £530,000 to £983,717 over the twelve years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
