7 LITTLE CLOSE 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 7 LITTLE CLOSE sales from July 2009 and October 2012 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 2009 sale was for 63% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 63% below the HPI over time, until the October 2012 sale, where it rises to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.

What might 7 LITTLE CLOSE be worth now?

7 LITTLE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £558,519.

This is based on house price inflation of 90%, between October 2012 and February 2025, 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 90% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 LITTLE CLOSE of £294,000 on 19th October 2012. For the value to have increased from £294,000 to £558,519 over the thirteen years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 7 LITTLE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The October 2012 sale price of £294,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 7 LITTLE CLOSE has not materially changed since October 2012.
