The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 WOOD END ROAD sales from August 2005 and July 2006 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 August 2005 sale was for 51% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% above the HPI over time, until the July 2006 sale, where it falls to 50% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% above the HPI.
2 WOOD END ROAD might now be worth an estimated £1,859,572.
This is based on house price inflation of 118.8%, between July 2006 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the St Albans local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 118.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 WOOD END ROAD of £850,000 on 10th July 2006. For the value to have increased from £850,000 to £1,859,572 over the nineteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
