4 LYRICAL WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dacorum local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 LYRICAL WAY sales from November 1995 and May 2004 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 November 1995 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the May 2004 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 4 LYRICAL WAY be worth now?

4 LYRICAL WAY might now be worth an estimated £682,026.

This is based on house price inflation of 127.3%, between May 2004 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dacorum local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 127.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 LYRICAL WAY of £299,995 on 28th May 2004. For the value to have increased from £299,995 to £682,026 over the 21 years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 LYRICAL WAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dacorum local authority area.
• The May 2004 sale price of £299,995 represented a fair market value for the property.
