The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Watford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 49 CEDAR ROAD sales from April 1997 and July 2008 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 1997 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the July 2008 sale, where it falls to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.
49 CEDAR ROAD might now be worth an estimated £853,335.
This is based on house price inflation of 81.6%, between July 2008 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Watford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
