The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 172 CHURCH LANE sales from April 1997 and April 2007 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 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the April 2007 sale, where it falls to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.
172 CHURCH LANE might now be worth an estimated £274,027.
This is based on house price inflation of 76.8%, between April 2007 and June 2025, for terraced houses, in the Bedford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
