218 LUTON ROAD 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 218 LUTON ROAD sales from July 2014 and May 2023 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 July 2014 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it rises to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

What might 218 LUTON ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 6.3%, between May 2023 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 6.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 218 LUTON ROAD of £495,000 on 2nd May 2023. For the value to have increased from £495,000 to £526,183 over the two years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
