14 LONGWOOD 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 two 14 LONGWOOD sales from June 1995 and January 2000 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 1995 sale was for 47% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% above the HPI over time, until the January 2000 sale, where it rises to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.

What might 14 LONGWOOD be worth now?

14 LONGWOOD might now be worth an estimated £924,655.

This is based on house price inflation of 248.9%, between January 2000 and December 2024, 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 248.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 14 LONGWOOD of £265,000 on 28th January 2000. For the value to have increased from £265,000 to £924,655 over the 23 years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 14 LONGWOOD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The January 2000 sale price of £265,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 14 LONGWOOD has not materially changed since January 2000.
