The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 31 HILLSIDE ROAD sales between January 1995 and July 2011 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 April 2001 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the July 2011 sale, where it rises to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.
31 HILLSIDE ROAD might now be worth an estimated £1,478,554.
This is based on house price inflation of 79.2%, between July 2011 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).
