68 HIGH STREET 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 six 68 HIGH STREET sales between May 1996 and July 2019 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 August 2016 sale was for 73% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 73% above the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it falls to 67% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 67% above the HPI.

What might 68 HIGH STREET be worth now?

68 HIGH STREET might now be worth an estimated £632,921.

This is based on house price inflation of 25.3%, between July 2019 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 25.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 68 HIGH STREET of £505,000 on 23rd July 2019. For the value to have increased from £505,000 to £632,921 over the six years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 68 HIGH STREET has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
