16 WADDLING LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 WADDLING LANE sales from July 2002 and May 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 July 2002 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it rises to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.

What might 16 WADDLING LANE be worth now?

16 WADDLING LANE might now be worth an estimated £1,499,440.

This is based on house price inflation of 57.8%, between May 2014 and February 2025, for 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 57.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 WADDLING LANE of £950,000 on 8th May 2014. For the value to have increased from £950,000 to £1,499,440 over the eleven years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 WADDLING LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the St Albans local authority area.
• The May 2014 sale price of £950,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
