27 RECTORY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 27 RECTORY CLOSE sales between September 2002 and October 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 April 2014 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the October 2025 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 27 RECTORY CLOSE be worth now?
