31 MEADOW WALK 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 two 31 MEADOW WALK sales from May 2000 and February 2019 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 2000 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it falls to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might 31 MEADOW WALK be worth now?

31 MEADOW WALK might now be worth an estimated £1,127,792.

This is based on house price inflation of 23.3%, between February 2019 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 23.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 31 MEADOW WALK of £915,000 on 28th February 2019. For the value to have increased from £915,000 to £1,127,792 over the six years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
