31 DESBOROUGH ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 31 DESBOROUGH ROAD sales from February 1998 and May 2002 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 February 1998 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the May 2002 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might 31 DESBOROUGH ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 223.4%, between May 2002 and August 2025, for terraced 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 223.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 31 DESBOROUGH ROAD of £110,000 on 22nd May 2002. For the value to have increased from £110,000 to £355,730 over the 22 years and nine months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
