4 RIDGE VIEW 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 4 RIDGE VIEW sales between June 2010 and June 2022 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 2018 sale was for 44% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% above the HPI over time, until the June 2022 sale, where it falls to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.

What might 4 RIDGE VIEW be worth now?

4 RIDGE VIEW might now be worth an estimated £543,331.

This is based on house price inflation of 9.8%, between June 2022 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 9.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 RIDGE VIEW of £495,000 on 20th June 2022. For the value to have increased from £495,000 to £543,331 over the three years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 RIDGE VIEW has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The June 2022 sale price of £495,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
