1 LEE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 LEE CLOSE sales from March 2014 and June 2026 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 2014 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the June 2026 sale, where it falls to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might 1 LEE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 0.7%, between June 2026 and July 2026, for detached houses, in the Bedford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 LEE CLOSE of £572,000 on 22nd June 2026. For the value to have increased from £572,000 to £575,974 over the eleven months to July 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
