BELVEDERE HOUSE 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 BELVEDERE HOUSE sales from May 1996 and September 2005 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 May 1996 sale was for 46% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% above the HPI over time, until the September 2005 sale, where it falls to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might BELVEDERE HOUSE be worth now?

BELVEDERE HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £617,712.

This is based on house price inflation of 99.3%, between September 2005 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 99.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BELVEDERE HOUSE of £310,000 on 7th September 2005. For the value to have increased from £310,000 to £617,712 over the eighteen years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BELVEDERE HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The September 2005 sale price of £310,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
