25 TOWNSEND CLOSE 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 25 TOWNSEND CLOSE sales from August 2000 and August 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 August 2000 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, which was also at 36% below the HPI.

What might 25 TOWNSEND CLOSE be worth now?
