KING MEADOWS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sevenoaks local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four KING MEADOWS sales between July 1995 and October 2019 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 March 2017 sale was for 67% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 67% above the HPI over time, until the October 2019 sale, where it falls to 59% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 59% above the HPI.

What might KING MEADOWS be worth now?

KING MEADOWS might now be worth an estimated £1,619,732.

This is based on house price inflation of 26%, between October 2019 and April 2026, for detached houses, in the Sevenoaks local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 26% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for KING MEADOWS of £1,285,000 on 18th October 2019. For the value to have increased from £1,285,000 to £1,619,732 over the seven years and six months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of KING MEADOWS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Sevenoaks local authority area.
• The October 2019 sale price of £1,285,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of KING MEADOWS has not materially changed since October 2019.
