Hertfordshire

Hertfordshire is one of England’s Home Counties and it has an approximate population of 1,112,000, making it the thirteenth most populous county in the country. The settlement from which the county takes its name, Hertford, is the county town of Hertfordshire.

Hertfordshire House Prices

In general, average house prices in Hertfordshire are higher than those in nearby Essex, Cambridgeshire and Bedfordshire. While average house prices in most areas of Hertfordshire have generally failed to reach the peaks they achieved in 2007 before the onset of the global financial crisis and subsequent housing market crash, the average rate of annual house value inflation in the county is currently 5%, while some house price indexes put this figure as high as 8.5%. Generally, prices across the county are around 8% higher than they were in 2010.

The most expensive area in Hertfordshire in terms of average house prices is Little Gaddesden, while house buyers in Stevenage can buy homes for less, on average, than anywhere else in the county.

It is always difficult to produce a truly representative average figure for an area as large as Hertfordshire. There are so many distinct neighbourhoods and regional variations that it is more sensible to view such an area as a collection of smaller housing markets. Local residents will recognise this and assume it to be axiomatic that there is no point comparing areas such as Moor Park and Eastbury or Ashridge with most other areas of the county.

Anyone seeking to gain a truly accurate picture of their home’s value should do as much research as possible into all aspects and influences that may affect the price of their property. National Homebuyers offer a fast, comprehensive, no obligation valuation that does all of this research for you and arrives at a truly representative price that accurately reflects your home’s value.

Hertfordshire Tradition & History

According to the archaeological record, scattered human settlements began to arise in Hertfordshire during the Middle Stone Age. The area was farmed during the Neolithic period and substantial and permanent human settlement began in the Bronze Age. Large tribes began to settle in the area during the Iron Age and the Catuvellauni tribe became predominant until the Roman occupation.

The Romans established the settlement of Verulamium in Hertfordshire and the town was later renamed to reflect the fact that it was the site of Britain’s first martyrdom, when St Alban was beheaded there in the late 3^rd century.

Following the withdrawal of the Romans in the early 5^th century and the subsequent Anglo-Saxon conquest of much of Britain, the area that is now Hertfordshire fell under the dominion of the Kingdom of the East Saxons from which Essex derives its name. When that kingdom collapsed in the 9^th century Hertfordshire fell under the suzerainty of Wessex.

Hertfordshire derives its name from its county town, Hertford, which essentially translates as a place for deer to ford a river. Stags and deer feature prominently in the emblazonry of the county.

Borehamwood in Hertfordshire was the home to one of the major film studio complexes in Britain, known as Elstree studios after a nearby village. Many notable films, including the original three Star Wars movies and most of Stanley Kubrick’s entire filmography were produced there. Who Wants to be a Millionaire and Big Brother were also filmed there and Eastenders is still shot there to this day. The Harry Potter films and some James Bond projects have also been filmed at the nearby Leavesden Film Studios.
