The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 22A TOWNSEND DRIVE sales from November 2009 and September 2023 have been plotted on the graph.

For example, the November 2009 sale was for 289% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 289% above the HPI over time, until the September 2023 sale, where it falls to 158% above the HPI.
