ARLINGTON HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four ARLINGTON HOUSE sales between October 1996 and October 2024 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 September 2013 sale was for 133% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 133% above the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it falls to 100% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 100% above the HPI.

What might ARLINGTON HOUSE be worth now?

ARLINGTON HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £2,475,240.

This is based on house price inflation of 0.2%, between October 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the St Albans local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ARLINGTON HOUSE of £2,470,000 on 3rd October 2024. For the value to have increased from £2,470,000 to £2,475,240 over the one year and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ARLINGTON HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the St Albans local authority area.
• The October 2024 sale price of £2,470,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ARLINGTON HOUSE has not materially changed since October 2024.
