8 VYNE 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 five 8 VYNE CLOSE sales between March 1995 and February 2003 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 June 2002 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the February 2003 sale, where it falls to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.

What might 8 VYNE CLOSE be worth now?

8 VYNE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £408,323.

This is based on house price inflation of 152.8%, between February 2003 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 152.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 VYNE CLOSE of £161,500 on 14th February 2003. For the value to have increased from £161,500 to £408,323 over the 21 years and eight months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 VYNE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Bedford local authority area.
• The February 2003 sale price of £161,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
