20 POPLAR ROAD 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 20 POPLAR ROAD sales from June 2000 and April 2023 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 June 2000 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the April 2023 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.

What might 20 POPLAR ROAD be worth now?

20 POPLAR ROAD might now be worth an estimated £448,337.

This is based on house price inflation of 5%, between April 2023 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 5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 POPLAR ROAD of £427,000 on 5th April 2023. For the value to have increased from £427,000 to £448,337 over the two years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 20 POPLAR ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The April 2023 sale price of £427,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 20 POPLAR ROAD has not materially changed since April 2023.
