7 THE SNIPE 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 two 7 THE SNIPE sales from May 2014 and October 2021 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 2014 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the October 2021 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.

What might 7 THE SNIPE be worth now?

7 THE SNIPE might now be worth an estimated £509,536.

This is based on house price inflation of 7.3%, between October 2021 and March 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 7.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 THE SNIPE of £475,000 on 22nd October 2021. For the value to have increased from £475,000 to £509,536 over the four years and seven months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 7 THE SNIPE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Hertfordshire local authority area.
• The October 2021 sale price of £475,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 7 THE SNIPE has not materially changed since October 2021.
