The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 THE ALMS HOUSES sales from June 2002 and December 2023 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 June 2002 sale was for 54% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% below the HPI over time, until the December 2023 sale, where it rises to 52% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% below the HPI.
2 THE ALMS HOUSES might now be worth an estimated £173,770.
This is based on house price inflation of 2.2%, between December 2023 and July 2025, for terraced 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 2.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 THE ALMS HOUSES of £170,000 on 13th December 2023. For the value to have increased from £170,000 to £173,770 over the two years and five months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
