38 RUSSELL 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 three 38 RUSSELL DRIVE sales between July 2000 and December 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 November 2002 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it falls to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 38 RUSSELL DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 22.7%, between December 2017 and February 2025, 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 22.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 38 RUSSELL DRIVE of £352,500 on 1st December 2017. For the value to have increased from £352,500 to £432,481 over the eight years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
