3 BROWNING ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 BROWNING ROAD sales between January 2006 and March 2021 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 2007 sale was for 49% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 49% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to 66% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 66% above the HPI.

What might 3 BROWNING ROAD be worth now?

3 BROWNING ROAD might now be worth an estimated £2,058,770.

This is based on house price inflation of 17.6%, between March 2021 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 17.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 BROWNING ROAD of £1,750,000 on 1st March 2021. For the value to have increased from £1,750,000 to £2,058,770 over the four years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 BROWNING ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the St Albans local authority area.
• The March 2021 sale price of £1,750,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
