11 BISHOP CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 11 BISHOP CLOSE sales between August 2000 and May 2020 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 November 2013 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the May 2020 sale, where it rises to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.

What might 11 BISHOP CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 24.6%, between May 2020 and April 2026, for terraced 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 24.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 11 BISHOP CLOSE of £285,000 on 26th May 2020. For the value to have increased from £285,000 to £355,144 over the six years and one month to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
