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 8 WEDGEWOOD ROAD sales from March 1998 and February 2010 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 March 1998 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the February 2010 sale, where it rises to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.
8 WEDGEWOOD ROAD might now be worth an estimated £545,151.
This is based on house price inflation of 94.7%, between February 2010 and December 2024, 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 94.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 WEDGEWOOD ROAD of £280,000 on 11th February 2010. For the value to have increased from £280,000 to £545,151 over the thirteen years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
