23 ABBEY ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 23 ABBEY ROAD sales from May 2011 and September 2021 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 May 2011 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it rises to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might 23 ABBEY ROAD be worth now?
