162 QUEENS DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 162 QUEENS DRIVE sales from August 1995 and August 2005 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 August 1995 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the August 2005 sale, where it rises to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.

What might 162 QUEENS DRIVE be worth now?

162 QUEENS DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £270,245.

This is based on house price inflation of 100.3%, between August 2005 and February 2025, for semi-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 100.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 162 QUEENS DRIVE of £134,950 on 5th August 2005. For the value to have increased from £134,950 to £270,245 over the twenty years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
