2 TRAHERNE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 TRAHERNE CLOSE sales from December 2001 and July 2019 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 December 2001 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it falls to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might 2 TRAHERNE CLOSE be worth now?

2 TRAHERNE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £476,429.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.1%, between July 2019 and February 2025, for semi-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 18.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 TRAHERNE CLOSE of £403,500 on 12th July 2019. For the value to have increased from £403,500 to £476,429 over the six years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 TRAHERNE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The July 2019 sale price of £403,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
