1 DOUGLAS PLACE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 DOUGLAS PLACE sales between February 2004 and December 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 June 2012 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the December 2021 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 1 DOUGLAS PLACE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 14.6%, between December 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 14.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 DOUGLAS PLACE of £480,000 on 13th December 2021. For the value to have increased from £480,000 to £549,875 over the four years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
