The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 242 HIGH STREET sales between April 1996 and March 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 November 2001 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the March 2007 sale, where it falls to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.
242 HIGH STREET might now be worth an estimated £270,888.
This is based on house price inflation of 81.8%, between March 2007 and June 2025, 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 81.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 242 HIGH STREET of £149,000 on 9th March 2007. For the value to have increased from £149,000 to £270,888 over the seventeen years and nine months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
