The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Milton Keynes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 BYWARD CLOSE sales from July 2006 and July 2012 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 July 2006 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.
1 BYWARD CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £329,700.
This is based on house price inflation of 99.8%, between July 2012 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Milton Keynes local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 99.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 BYWARD CLOSE of £165,000 on 2nd July 2012. For the value to have increased from £165,000 to £329,700 over the thirteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
