5 PARK STREET Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 PARK STREET sales between August 1999 and October 2022 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 April 2016 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the October 2022 sale, which was also at 13% below the HPI.

What might 5 PARK STREET be worth now?

5 PARK STREET might now be worth an estimated £688,516.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.8%, between October 2022 and August 2025, for 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 2.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 PARK STREET of £670,000 on 17th October 2022. For the value to have increased from £670,000 to £688,516 over the three years and two months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 PARK STREET has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The October 2022 sale price of £670,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 PARK STREET has not materially changed since October 2022.
