15 CHEVIOT GARDENS 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 four 15 CHEVIOT GARDENS sales between February 1996 and May 2005 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 May 2000 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the May 2005 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 15 CHEVIOT GARDENS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 90.8%, between May 2005 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 90.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 CHEVIOT GARDENS of £215,000 on 20th May 2005. For the value to have increased from £215,000 to £410,318 over the eighteen years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
