What a square metre costs in AL10 0
Measured by floor area, the last five years of AL10 0 sales average about £4,590 per square metre. Price per square metre is the fair way to compare a one-bed flat with a four-bed house, and it comes from the Energy Performance Certificate on each sold home.

In cash terms the typical AL10 0 home went from £58,500 in 1995 to £375,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 195%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2021. The market now sits about 11% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the AL10 0 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2014 (+26.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2013 (−14.4%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +10.3% | +7.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.4% | −2.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.5% | +0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.9% | +1.1% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
Transaction volumes
Sales per year, counted
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 29 sales completed in AL10 0. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 171 sales a year before the financial crisis and 73 a year over the last five. Watch the volume as closely as the price. Thin years make jumpy medians, where one street's sales can move the figure, and the newest year is always incomplete because registrations trail completions by weeks or months.
What homes rent for around AL10 0
For renting purposes AL10 0 sits in Welwyn Hatfield. The ONS average private rent there is £1,482 a month (May 2026). A one-bed averages £1,041 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £2,294, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Welwyn Hatfield
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £375,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,482 a month (£17,784 a year) works out at a 4.7% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
Reading the AL10 0 market
This is a thin market: 29 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict.

If you are weighing a purchase, read the volume chart alongside the price one, and remember that every figure here is a completed sale, lagged by the weeks it takes the Land Registry to register it.
What is for sale in AL10 right now
The live side of the market holds 46 homes at the moment, listed by 7 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole AL10 district, not just AL10 0: live asking prices are collected per district.
36% of what is on the market here is asking below what comparable homes actually sold for. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
- Halford Court, Hatfield, Hertfordshire, Hatfield
- Great Braitch Lane, Hatfield, Hertfordshire, Hatfield
- Walsingham Close, Hatfield, AL10, Hatfield
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

Moving up a bedroom in AL: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the AL area, from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £605,000 | £792,500 (+31%) | £1,160,000 (+46%) | £1,685,000 (+45%) |

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
