53 STOTFOLD ROAD 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 three 53 STOTFOLD ROAD sales between October 2004 and March 2016 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 November 2006 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 53 STOTFOLD ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 31%, between March 2016 and December 2024, 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 31% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 53 STOTFOLD ROAD of £400,000 on 31st March 2016. For the value to have increased from £400,000 to £524,023 over the seven years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
