32 LEWIS 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 two 32 LEWIS CLOSE sales from September 2013 and September 2017 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 September 2013 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 32 LEWIS CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 24.8%, between September 2017 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 24.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 32 LEWIS CLOSE of £219,950 on 29th September 2017. For the value to have increased from £219,950 to £274,473 over the eight years and three months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
