3 ROWAN WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 ROWAN WAY sales from January 2016 and December 2020 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 January 2016 sale was for 31% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% below the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it rises to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.

What might 3 ROWAN WAY be worth now?

3 ROWAN WAY might now be worth an estimated £874,265.

This is based on house price inflation of 12.8%, between December 2020 and June 2025, for semi-detached 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 12.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 ROWAN WAY of £775,000 on 7th December 2020. For the value to have increased from £775,000 to £874,265 over the five years and six months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 ROWAN WAY has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the St Albans local authority area.
• The December 2020 sale price of £775,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
