ROSE COTTAGE 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 five ROSE COTTAGE sales between March 2003 and February 2018 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 April 2010 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the February 2018 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might ROSE COTTAGE be worth now?

ROSE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £378,368.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.2%, between February 2018 and August 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 18.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ROSE COTTAGE of £320,000 on 23rd February 2018. For the value to have increased from £320,000 to £378,368 over the six years and six months to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ROSE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The February 2018 sale price of £320,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ROSE COTTAGE has not materially changed since February 2018.
