The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 30 PURWELL LANE sales between April 1997 and May 2010 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 March 2005 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the May 2010 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

30 PURWELL LANE might now be worth an estimated £465,428.
This is based on house price inflation of 90%, between May 2010 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).
