69 QUEEN STREET 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 69 QUEEN STREET sales between March 1999 and January 2017 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 2001 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the January 2017 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 69 QUEEN STREET be worth now?

69 QUEEN STREET might now be worth an estimated £871,110.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.4%, between January 2017 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 21.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 69 QUEEN STREET of £717,500 on 6th January 2017. For the value to have increased from £717,500 to £871,110 over the six years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 69 QUEEN STREET has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
