2 CORNISH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 CORNISH CLOSE sales from March 2000 and March 2002 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 March 2000 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the March 2002 sale, where it falls to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.

What might 2 CORNISH CLOSE be worth now?

2 CORNISH CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £385,463.

This is based on house price inflation of 184.5%, between March 2002 and December 2024, 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 184.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 CORNISH CLOSE of £135,500 on 28th March 2002. For the value to have increased from £135,500 to £385,463 over the 21 years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 CORNISH CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The March 2002 sale price of £135,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
