3 LAUREL EDGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 LAUREL EDGE sales from May 1999 and November 2013 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 May 1999 sale was for 35% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% above the HPI over time, until the November 2013 sale, where it falls to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.

What might 3 LAUREL EDGE be worth now?

3 LAUREL EDGE might now be worth an estimated £461,900.

This is based on house price inflation of 68%, between November 2013 and February 2025, for semi-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 68% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 LAUREL EDGE of £275,000 on 15th November 2013. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £461,900 over the twelve years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 LAUREL EDGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the St Albans local authority area.
• The November 2013 sale price of £275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 3 LAUREL EDGE has not materially changed since November 2013.
