The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 30 SOUTHDOWN ROAD sales from October 2002 and February 2020 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 October 2002 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it falls to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.
30 SOUTHDOWN ROAD might now be worth an estimated £1,252,067.
This is based on house price inflation of 19.2%, between February 2020 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).
