1 POUND CLOSE 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 POUND CLOSE sales between June 2001 and June 2019 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 September 2010 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the June 2019 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 1 POUND CLOSE be worth now?

1 POUND CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £499,889.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.9%, between June 2019 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 21.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 POUND CLOSE of £410,000 on 21st June 2019. For the value to have increased from £410,000 to £499,889 over the four years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 POUND CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The June 2019 sale price of £410,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 POUND CLOSE has not materially changed since June 2019.
