5 FARM CRESCENT 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 FARM CRESCENT sales from December 2003 and November 2005 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 2003 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the November 2005 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might 5 FARM CRESCENT be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 127.9%, between November 2005 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 127.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 FARM CRESCENT of £464,000 on 18th November 2005. For the value to have increased from £464,000 to £1,057,581 over the twenty years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
