The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 156 HARROWDEN ROAD sales between March 1995 and July 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 2006 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it rises to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.
156 HARROWDEN ROAD might now be worth an estimated £290,338.
