1 THE MEADS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 THE MEADS sales from January 2006 and March 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 January 2006 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it rises to 40% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% above the HPI.

What might 1 THE MEADS be worth now?

1 THE MEADS might now be worth an estimated £1,203,812.

This is based on house price inflation of 12.8%, between March 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 12.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 THE MEADS of £1,067,500 on 12th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £1,067,500 to £1,203,812 over the four years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 THE MEADS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area.
• The March 2021 sale price of £1,067,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 THE MEADS has not materially changed since March 2021.
