3 JOHNSON DRIVE 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 3 JOHNSON DRIVE sales from December 2004 and July 2005 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 2004 sale was for 59% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% below the HPI over time, until the July 2005 sale, where it rises to 46% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% below the HPI.

What might 3 JOHNSON DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 101.8%, between July 2005 and December 2024, 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 101.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 JOHNSON DRIVE of £163,995 on 1st July 2005. For the value to have increased from £163,995 to £331,013 over the eighteen years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
