3 CASTLE GATEWAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dacorum local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 3 CASTLE GATEWAY sales between December 1995 and February 2007 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 February 2007 sale was for 45% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% above the HPI over time, until the February 2007 sale, where it falls to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.

What might 3 CASTLE GATEWAY be worth now?

3 CASTLE GATEWAY might now be worth an estimated £955,439.

This is based on house price inflation of 101.1%, between February 2007 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dacorum local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 101.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 CASTLE GATEWAY of £475,000 on 9th February 2007. For the value to have increased from £475,000 to £955,439 over the eighteen years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 CASTLE GATEWAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dacorum local authority area.
