17 GOSMORE ROAD 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 three 17 GOSMORE ROAD sales between March 2000 and April 2005 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 2001 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the April 2005 sale, where it falls to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might 17 GOSMORE ROAD be worth now?

17 GOSMORE ROAD might now be worth an estimated £783,566.

This is based on house price inflation of 114.7%, between April 2005 and December 2024, 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 114.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 GOSMORE ROAD of £365,000 on 19th April 2005. For the value to have increased from £365,000 to £783,566 over the eighteen years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 17 GOSMORE ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The April 2005 sale price of £365,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
