2 RIVER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Maidstone local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 RIVER CLOSE sales between March 2005 and January 2023 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 October 2016 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the January 2023 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 2 RIVER CLOSE be worth now?

2 RIVER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £509,053.

This is based on house price inflation of 0.8%, between January 2023 and August 2025, for detached houses, in the Maidstone local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 RIVER CLOSE of £505,000 on 5th January 2023. For the value to have increased from £505,000 to £509,053 over the one year and five months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 RIVER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The January 2023 sale price of £505,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 RIVER CLOSE has not materially changed since January 2023.
