14 PERCH MEWS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 14 PERCH MEWS sales between August 2018 and September 2021 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 October 2020 sale was for 51% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% below the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it rises to 50% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% below the HPI.

What might 14 PERCH MEWS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 10.3%, between September 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Bedford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 10.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 14 PERCH MEWS of £245,000 on 30th September 2021. For the value to have increased from £245,000 to £270,186 over the four years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
