23 THE BEAMS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Maidstone local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six 23 THE BEAMS sales between June 1996 and December 2021 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 2018 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the December 2021 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 23 THE BEAMS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 16.2%, between December 2021 and February 2025, for semi-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 16.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 23 THE BEAMS of £298,500 on 17th December 2021. For the value to have increased from £298,500 to £346,967 over the four years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 23 THE BEAMS has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The December 2021 sale price of £298,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
