The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 GRASMERE CLOSE sales from October 2005 and September 2012 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 2005 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the September 2012 sale, where it rises to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.
17 GRASMERE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £711,990.
This is based on house price inflation of 89.4%, between September 2012 and February 2025, for 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 89.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 GRASMERE CLOSE of £376,000 on 21st September 2012. For the value to have increased from £376,000 to £711,990 over the thirteen years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
