32 BENSLOW LANE 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 four 32 BENSLOW LANE sales between May 1997 and September 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 2013 sale was for 54% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% above the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it rises to 97% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 97% above the HPI.

What might 32 BENSLOW LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 17.2%, between September 2020 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 17.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 32 BENSLOW LANE of £625,000 on 18th September 2020. For the value to have increased from £625,000 to £732,560 over the five years and one month to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 32 BENSLOW LANE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
