16 LEA ROAD 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 two 16 LEA ROAD sales from January 2014 and September 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 January 2014 sale was for 21% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% above the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it rises to 59% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 59% above the HPI.

What might 16 LEA ROAD be worth now?

16 LEA ROAD might now be worth an estimated £604,196.

This is based on house price inflation of 24.6%, between September 2019 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 24.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 LEA ROAD of £485,000 on 17th September 2019. For the value to have increased from £485,000 to £604,196 over the six years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 LEA ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The September 2019 sale price of £485,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
