25 HYDRUS DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 25 HYDRUS DRIVE sales from December 2006 and September 2017 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 December 2006 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it rises to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.

What might 25 HYDRUS DRIVE be worth now?

25 HYDRUS DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £437,060.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.4%, between September 2017 and December 2024, for semi-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 21.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 25 HYDRUS DRIVE of £360,000 on 22nd September 2017. For the value to have increased from £360,000 to £437,060 over the six years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 25 HYDRUS DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The September 2017 sale price of £360,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 25 HYDRUS DRIVE has not materially changed since September 2017.
