2 HIGH GROVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 HIGH GROVE sales from October 2004 and February 2016 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 2004 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it rises to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.

What might 2 HIGH GROVE be worth now?

2 HIGH GROVE might now be worth an estimated £1,096,815.

This is based on house price inflation of 25.4%, between February 2016 and March 2025, for detached houses, in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 25.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 HIGH GROVE of £875,000 on 16th February 2016. For the value to have increased from £875,000 to £1,096,815 over the eight years and eleven months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 HIGH GROVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area.
• The February 2016 sale price of £875,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
