15 WESTCOTT 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 15 WESTCOTT sales from April 2005 and April 2017 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 2005 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the April 2017 sale, where it falls to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 15 WESTCOTT be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 16.6%, between April 2017 and February 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 16.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 WESTCOTT of £705,000 on 13th April 2017. For the value to have increased from £705,000 to £822,011 over the eight years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
