The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 KING GEORGE CLOSE sales from March 2012 and September 2016 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 March 2012 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it falls to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.
1 KING GEORGE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £701,942.
This is based on house price inflation of 27.6%, between September 2016 and December 2024, 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).
