20 CHESTNUT WALK 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 three 20 CHESTNUT WALK sales between September 1997 and November 2015 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 2005 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the November 2015 sale, where it falls to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 20 CHESTNUT WALK be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 27.8%, between November 2015 and February 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 27.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 CHESTNUT WALK of £645,000 on 5th November 2015. For the value to have increased from £645,000 to £824,178 over the ten years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
