15 TORTOISESHELL WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Dacorum local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 15 TORTOISESHELL WAY sales from September 1997 and July 1999 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 1997 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the July 1999 sale, where it falls to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might 15 TORTOISESHELL WAY be worth now?

15 TORTOISESHELL WAY might now be worth an estimated £580,930.

This is based on house price inflation of 353.9%, between July 1999 and February 2025, for semi-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 353.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 TORTOISESHELL WAY of £128,000 on 24th July 1999. For the value to have increased from £128,000 to £580,930 over the 26 years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
