17 SOMERSET ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 SOMERSET ROAD sales from July 1995 and July 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 July 1995 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the July 2003 sale, where it rises to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.

What might 17 SOMERSET ROAD be worth now?

The 152.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 SOMERSET ROAD of £281,500 on 25th July 2003. For the value to have increased from £281,500 to £710,056 over the 22 years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
