TORWELL 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 TORWELL sales from April 1997 and July 2001 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 April 1997 sale was for 56% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 56% above the HPI over time, until the July 2001 sale, where it rises to 143% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 143% above the HPI.

What might TORWELL be worth now?

TORWELL might now be worth an estimated £1,512,255.

This is based on house price inflation of 218.4%, between July 2001 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 218.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for TORWELL of £475,000 on 6th July 2001. For the value to have increased from £475,000 to £1,512,255 over the 24 years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of TORWELL has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The July 2001 sale price of £475,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of TORWELL has not materially changed since July 2001.
