32 SOMERSHAM Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 32 SOMERSHAM sales from December 1995 and November 2018 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 December 1995 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it falls to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might 32 SOMERSHAM be worth now?

32 SOMERSHAM might now be worth an estimated £557,961.

This is based on house price inflation of 13.9%, between November 2018 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 13.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 32 SOMERSHAM of £490,000 on 7th November 2018. For the value to have increased from £490,000 to £557,961 over the seven years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 32 SOMERSHAM has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Welwyn Hatfield local authority area.
• The November 2018 sale price of £490,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
