2 ACHILLES CLOSE 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 two 2 ACHILLES CLOSE sales from October 2019 and July 2025 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 2019 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the July 2025 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 2 ACHILLES CLOSE be worth now?
