66 BEDFORD ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 66 BEDFORD ROAD sales from December 1998 and July 2003 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 1998 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the July 2003 sale, where it rises to 38% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% above the HPI.

What might 66 BEDFORD ROAD be worth now?

66 BEDFORD ROAD might now be worth an estimated £636,847.

This is based on house price inflation of 140.3%, between July 2003 and February 2025, for semi-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 140.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 66 BEDFORD ROAD of £265,000 on 25th July 2003. For the value to have increased from £265,000 to £636,847 over the 22 years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
