1 SATURN 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 two 1 SATURN CLOSE sales from March 2001 and May 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 March 2001 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 1 SATURN CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 71.9%, between May 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 71.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 SATURN CLOSE of £263,250 on 27th May 2014. For the value to have increased from £263,250 to £452,496 over the nine years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
