24 KINGS DOWN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 24 KINGS DOWN sales from December 2005 and March 2011 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 2005 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the March 2011 sale, where it rises to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might 24 KINGS DOWN be worth now?

24 KINGS DOWN might now be worth an estimated £485,356.

This is based on house price inflation of 94.1%, between March 2011 and August 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the North Hertfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 94.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 24 KINGS DOWN of £250,000 on 17th March 2011. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £485,356 over the thirteen years and seven months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 24 KINGS DOWN has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
