42 LONGBROOKE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 42 LONGBROOKE sales between August 1998 and April 2014 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 February 2012 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it rises to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 42 LONGBROOKE be worth now?

42 LONGBROOKE might now be worth an estimated £261,632.

This is based on house price inflation of 71.6%, between April 2014 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 71.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 42 LONGBROOKE of £152,500 on 11th April 2014. For the value to have increased from £152,500 to £261,632 over the ten years and ten months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 42 LONGBROOKE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area.
• The April 2014 sale price of £152,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 42 LONGBROOKE has not materially changed since April 2014.
