The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Watford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 56 PURBROCK AVENUE sales between January 2001 and January 2021 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 2010 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the January 2021 sale, where it falls to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.
56 PURBROCK AVENUE might now be worth an estimated £649,375.
This is based on house price inflation of 9%, between January 2021 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Watford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
