153 BEARTON ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 153 BEARTON ROAD sales between January 2002 and June 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 May 2006 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it rises to 40% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% above the HPI.

What might 153 BEARTON ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 62.9%, between June 2014 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the North Hertfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 62.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 153 BEARTON ROAD of £405,000 on 3rd June 2014. For the value to have increased from £405,000 to £659,709 over the nine years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
