16 PALACE GARDENS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six 16 PALACE GARDENS sales between August 1997 and March 2023 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 2013 sale was for 69% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 69% above the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, where it falls to 54% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 54% above the HPI.

What might 16 PALACE GARDENS be worth now?

This is based on house price deflation of 0.3%, between March 2023 and February 2025, for 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 0.3% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 PALACE GARDENS of £1,200,000 on 21st March 2023. For the value to have decreased from £1,200,000 to £1,196,396 over the two years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 PALACE GARDENS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
