17 WATERCRESS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stevenage local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 WATERCRESS CLOSE sales from October 1998 and September 2011 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 October 1998 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the September 2011 sale, where it falls to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might 17 WATERCRESS CLOSE be worth now?

17 WATERCRESS CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £676,180.

This is based on house price inflation of 85.3%, between September 2011 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Stevenage local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 85.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 WATERCRESS CLOSE of £365,000 on 23rd September 2011. For the value to have increased from £365,000 to £676,180 over the fourteen years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

  • The value of 17 WATERCRESS CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Stevenage local authority area.
  • The September 2011 sale price of £365,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
  • The size, condition, and specification of 17 WATERCRESS CLOSE has not materially changed since September 2011.
Disclaimer: Please note that this is a theoretical estimate based on assumptions which may or may not be correct. It should not be relied on for any purpose.
