39 THE GROVE 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 39 THE GROVE sales from March 2008 and July 2024 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 March 2008 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the July 2024 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might 39 THE GROVE be worth now?

39 THE GROVE might now be worth an estimated £367,042.

This is based on house price inflation of 8%, between July 2024 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 8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 39 THE GROVE of £340,000 on 23rd July 2024. For the value to have increased from £340,000 to £367,042 over the one year and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 39 THE GROVE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The July 2024 sale price of £340,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 39 THE GROVE has not materially changed since July 2024.
