Sales by price band in WD17
How the 48 recent recorded sales in WD17 split across price bands — the shape of the local market, not just its midpoint:
Bands computed over the recorded-sales sample above. A sample is not the whole market — see the price trend below for the wider context.
Price trend: WD17 in context
An outcode sample is small, so set it against the wider market. The UK House Price Index (UKHPI) tracks average prices and annual change for the local authority and region WD17 sits in:
| Area | Average price | Annual change | As of |
|---|---|---|---|
| Watford (local authority) | £395,360 | +2.2% | May 2026 |
| East of England (region) | £338,224 | +2.3% | May 2026 |
| England & Wales (national) | £287,003 | +2.4% | May 2026 |
UKHPI is a mix-adjusted index published with a ~2-month lag. A street-level (HPSSA) small-area median is available from ONS as a bulk download — not yet wired here, so we never fabricate it.
Indicative current area value in WD17
The WD17 median above is the mid-point of recent recorded sales. To bring it up to date, we index that median forward to May 2026 using the UK House Price Index annual change of +2.2% across Watford:

The ±6% band is a stated area-dispersion allowance that widens the further the median is indexed forward. It is a transparent assumption, not a statistical confidence interval.
