147 THE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Three Rivers local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 147 THE DRIVE sales from October 1995 and September 2018 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 1995 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it falls to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might 147 THE DRIVE be worth now?

147 THE DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £1,132,117.

This is based on house price inflation of 5.3%, between September 2018 and March 2025, for detached houses, in the Three Rivers local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 5.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 147 THE DRIVE of £1,075,000 on 25th September 2018. For the value to have increased from £1,075,000 to £1,132,117 over the seven years and six months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 147 THE DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Three Rivers local authority area.
• The September 2018 sale price of £1,075,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 147 THE DRIVE has not materially changed since September 2018.
