25 ARKWRIGHT 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 25 ARKWRIGHT ROAD sales from September 1997 and March 2004 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 September 1997 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the March 2004 sale, where it rises to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might 25 ARKWRIGHT ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 114.2%, between March 2004 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Bedford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 114.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 25 ARKWRIGHT ROAD of £250,000 on 25th March 2004. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £535,378 over the nineteen years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
