21 BUTTERCUP CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 21 BUTTERCUP CLOSE sales between July 1995 and December 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 June 2016 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 21 BUTTERCUP CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 21%, between December 2020 and June 2025, for semi-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 21% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 21 BUTTERCUP CLOSE of £213,000 on 18th December 2020. For the value to have increased from £213,000 to £257,777 over the five years and six months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 21 BUTTERCUP CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Bedford local authority area.
