36 DOWNS ROAD 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 36 DOWNS ROAD sales from December 1996 and March 2016 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 1996 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might 36 DOWNS ROAD be worth now?

36 DOWNS ROAD might now be worth an estimated £401,920.

This is based on house price inflation of 37.4%, between March 2016 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 37.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 36 DOWNS ROAD of £292,500 on 14th March 2016. For the value to have increased from £292,500 to £401,920 over the seven years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
