The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Central Bedfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 MIDLAND GARDENS sales between December 2003 and October 2015 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 2010 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
5 MIDLAND GARDENS might now be worth an estimated £451,217.
This is based on house price inflation of 42.8%, between October 2015 and June 2025, for detached 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 42.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 MIDLAND GARDENS of £316,000 on 2nd October 2015. For the value to have increased from £316,000 to £451,217 over the ten years and four months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
