14 BRACHE CLOSE 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 three 14 BRACHE CLOSE sales between March 2005 and January 2018 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 April 2007 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the January 2018 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 14 BRACHE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 16.1%, between January 2018 and February 2025, 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 16.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 14 BRACHE CLOSE of £498,470 on 12th January 2018. For the value to have increased from £498,470 to £578,874 over the six years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
