2 DOVEHOUSE LANE 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 four 2 DOVEHOUSE LANE sales between June 1995 and July 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 February 1997 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the July 2005 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 2 DOVEHOUSE LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 106.6%, between July 2005 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 106.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 DOVEHOUSE LANE of £225,000 on 27th July 2005. For the value to have increased from £225,000 to £464,766 over the twenty years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
