12B BIRCH CLOSE 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 12B BIRCH CLOSE sales from May 2015 and December 2025 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 May 2015 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the December 2025 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 12B BIRCH CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 0.6%, between December 2025 and April 2026, 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 0.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12B BIRCH CLOSE of £470,000 on 12th December 2025. For the value to have increased from £470,000 to £472,911 over the one year and eight months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
