The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stevenage local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 WATERCRESS CLOSE sales between May 2005 and June 2020 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 October 2011 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the June 2020 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI.
