5 KENDAL GARDENS 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 two 5 KENDAL GARDENS sales from November 2002 and August 2008 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 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the August 2008 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might 5 KENDAL GARDENS be worth now?

5 KENDAL GARDENS might now be worth an estimated £447,662.

This is based on house price inflation of 80.9%, between August 2008 and December 2024, 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 80.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 KENDAL GARDENS of £247,500 on 1st August 2008. For the value to have increased from £247,500 to £447,662 over the fifteen years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 KENDAL GARDENS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The August 2008 sale price of £247,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
