38 WINGATE 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 four 38 WINGATE DRIVE sales between December 2000 and May 2015 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 May 2006 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the May 2015 sale, where it rises to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might 38 WINGATE DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 56.4%, between May 2015 and February 2025, 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 56.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 38 WINGATE DRIVE of £399,995 on 29th May 2015. For the value to have increased from £399,995 to £625,458 over the ten years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
