The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 70 HARDWICKE PLACE sales between June 1996 and July 2002 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 1999 sale was for 50% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% below the HPI over time, until the July 2002 sale, where it rises to 46% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% below the HPI.
70 HARDWICKE PLACE might now be worth an estimated £668,001.
