ROUNDWOOD COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dacorum local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five ROUNDWOOD COTTAGE sales between January 1999 and September 2019 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 August 2014 sale was for 37% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% above the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.

What might ROUNDWOOD COTTAGE be worth now?

ROUNDWOOD COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,045,842.

This is based on house price inflation of 19.3%, between September 2019 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Dacorum local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 19.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ROUNDWOOD COTTAGE of £877,000 on 6th September 2019. For the value to have increased from £877,000 to £1,045,842 over the four years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
