5 SASSOON DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 SASSOON DRIVE sales from December 2015 and September 2019 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 2015 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it rises to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.

What might 5 SASSOON DRIVE be worth now?

5 SASSOON DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £490,249.

This is based on house price inflation of 16.7%, between September 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the North Hertfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 SASSOON DRIVE of £420,000 on 30th September 2019. For the value to have increased from £420,000 to £490,249 over the six years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
