30 RIDGEWOOD DRIVE 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 four 30 RIDGEWOOD DRIVE sales between August 1999 and November 2010 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 August 2007 sale was for 37% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% above the HPI over time, until the November 2010 sale, where it falls to 35% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% above the HPI.

What might 30 RIDGEWOOD DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 78.8%, between November 2010 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 78.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 30 RIDGEWOOD DRIVE of £937,184 on 26th November 2010. For the value to have increased from £937,184 to £1,675,499 over the fifteen years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
