PIPERS LODGE 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 PIPERS LODGE sales from October 1999 and June 2003 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 October 1999 sale was for 82% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 82% above the HPI over time, until the June 2003 sale, where it falls to 81% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 81% above the HPI.

What might PIPERS LODGE be worth now?

PIPERS LODGE might now be worth an estimated £1,105,897.

This is based on house price inflation of 121.2%, between June 2003 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 121.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for PIPERS LODGE of £500,000 on 26th June 2003. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £1,105,897 over the twenty years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of PIPERS LODGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The June 2003 sale price of £500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of PIPERS LODGE has not materially changed since June 2003.
