5 CROSSFIELDS 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 5 CROSSFIELDS sales from June 2002 and May 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 June 2002 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the May 2011 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might 5 CROSSFIELDS be worth now?

5 CROSSFIELDS might now be worth an estimated £1,149,646.

This is based on house price inflation of 79.4%, between May 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).

The 79.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 CROSSFIELDS of £640,700 on 18th May 2011. For the value to have increased from £640,700 to £1,149,646 over the fourteen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The May 2011 sale price of £640,700 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 CROSSFIELDS has not materially changed since May 2011.
