20 CHESTNUT DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 20 CHESTNUT DRIVE sales from October 1997 and September 2016 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 1997 sale was for 37% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% above the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it falls to 26% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% above the HPI.

What might 20 CHESTNUT DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 15.4%, between September 2016 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the St Albans local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 15.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 CHESTNUT DRIVE of £602,000 on 16th September 2016. For the value to have increased from £602,000 to £694,598 over the nine years and three months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
