5 HILLTOP 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 5 HILLTOP WALK sales from June 2003 and July 2010 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 2003 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the July 2010 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 5 HILLTOP WALK be worth now?

5 HILLTOP WALK might now be worth an estimated £1,364,385.

This is based on house price inflation of 84.4%, between July 2010 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 84.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 HILLTOP WALK of £740,000 on 1st July 2010. For the value to have increased from £740,000 to £1,364,385 over the fifteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 HILLTOP WALK has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the St Albans local authority area.
• The July 2010 sale price of £740,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
