64 TOWNSEND LANE 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 64 TOWNSEND LANE sales between January 2004 and February 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 January 2006 sale was for 135% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 135% above the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it falls to 131% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 131% above the HPI.

What might 64 TOWNSEND LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 16.3%, between February 2021 and December 2024, 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 16.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 64 TOWNSEND LANE of £2,475,000 on 1st February 2021. For the value to have increased from £2,475,000 to £2,877,654 over the two years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
