THE LODGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE LODGE sales from December 2002 and January 2015 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 December 2002 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the January 2015 sale, where it falls to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.

What might THE LODGE be worth now?

THE LODGE might now be worth an estimated £890,977.

This is based on house price inflation of 41.4%, between January 2015 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the East Hertfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 41.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE LODGE of £630,000 on 26th January 2015. For the value to have increased from £630,000 to £890,977 over the nine years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE LODGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The January 2015 sale price of £630,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE LODGE has not materially changed since January 2015.
