THE OLD BARN 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 three THE OLD BARN sales between January 2004 and July 2022 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 March 2007 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it falls to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might THE OLD BARN be worth now?

THE OLD BARN might now be worth an estimated £657,415.

This is based on house price inflation of 7.8%, between July 2022 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 7.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE OLD BARN of £610,000 on 18th July 2022. For the value to have increased from £610,000 to £657,415 over the three years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE OLD BARN has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The July 2022 sale price of £610,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE OLD BARN has not materially changed since July 2022.
