18 PAPION GROVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 PAPION GROVE sales from May 1995 and March 1996 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 1995 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the March 1996 sale, where it falls to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might 18 PAPION GROVE be worth now?

18 PAPION GROVE might now be worth an estimated £337,973.

This is based on house price inflation of 514.5%, between March 1996 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 514.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 PAPION GROVE of £55,000 on 21st March 1996. For the value to have increased from £55,000 to £337,973 over the 29 years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 18 PAPION GROVE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area.
• The March 1996 sale price of £55,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
