22 ESSEX ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stevenage local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 22 ESSEX ROAD sales from November 1997 and August 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 November 1997 sale was for 39% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% above the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it falls to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might 22 ESSEX ROAD be worth now?
