54 CARPENDERS CLOSE 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 three 54 CARPENDERS CLOSE sales between December 2003 and October 2014 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 August 2007 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 54 CARPENDERS CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 45.3%, between October 2014 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 45.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 54 CARPENDERS CLOSE of £695,000 on 27th October 2014. For the value to have increased from £695,000 to £1,010,149 over the eleven years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 54 CARPENDERS CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the St Albans local authority area.
