49 RUSSELL WAY 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 49 RUSSELL WAY sales between September 2001 and February 2004 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 July 2002 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the February 2004 sale, where it falls to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might 49 RUSSELL WAY be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 129.2%, between February 2004 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 129.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 49 RUSSELL WAY of £170,500 on 6th February 2004. For the value to have increased from £170,500 to £390,800 over the 21 years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
