The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Dacorum local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 2 BELSWAINS COTTAGES sales between December 2001 and June 2012 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 March 2007 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the June 2012 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.
2 BELSWAINS COTTAGES might now be worth an estimated £460,380.
This is based on house price inflation of 84.2%, between June 2012 and March 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Dacorum local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 84.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 BELSWAINS COTTAGES of £249,950 on 22nd June 2012. For the value to have increased from £249,950 to £460,380 over the thirteen years and three months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
