45 WEST HILL Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 45 WEST HILL sales between June 1999 and October 2013 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 September 2002 sale was for 71% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 71% above the HPI over time, until the October 2013 sale, where it falls to 65% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 65% above the HPI.

What might 45 WEST HILL be worth now?

45 WEST HILL might now be worth an estimated £787,299.

This is based on house price inflation of 78.8%, between October 2013 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).

The 78.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 45 WEST HILL of £440,250 on 2nd October 2013. For the value to have increased from £440,250 to £787,299 over the twelve years and two months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 45 WEST HILL has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
