1 LAUREL MEWS 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 two 1 LAUREL MEWS sales from December 2010 and April 2014 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 December 2010 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 1 LAUREL MEWS be worth now?

1 LAUREL MEWS might now be worth an estimated £477,753.

This is based on house price inflation of 73.7%, between April 2014 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).

The 73.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 LAUREL MEWS of £275,000 on 15th April 2014. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £477,753 over the nine years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 LAUREL MEWS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The April 2014 sale price of £275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 LAUREL MEWS has not materially changed since April 2014.
