14 LEVEN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 14 LEVEN CLOSE sales between April 1999 and March 2018 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 April 2014 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the March 2018 sale, where it falls to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.

What might 14 LEVEN CLOSE be worth now?

14 LEVEN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £436,538.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.3%, between March 2018 and February 2025, for semi-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 21.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 14 LEVEN CLOSE of £359,950 on 6th March 2018. For the value to have increased from £359,950 to £436,538 over the seven years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 14 LEVEN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The March 2018 sale price of £359,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 14 LEVEN CLOSE has not materially changed since March 2018.
