7 GORSE CORNER Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 7 GORSE CORNER sales between April 1996 and May 2010 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 May 2002 sale was for 108% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 108% above the HPI over time, until the May 2010 sale, where it falls to 88% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 88% above the HPI.

What might 7 GORSE CORNER be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 80.7%, between May 2010 and October 2025, for detached houses, in the St Albans local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 80.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 GORSE CORNER of £1,250,000 on 28th May 2010. For the value to have increased from £1,250,000 to £2,258,448 over the fourteen years and seven months to October 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
