2 FOREST DENE 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 2 FOREST DENE sales from September 1999 and July 2003 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 September 1999 sale was for 47% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% above the HPI over time, until the July 2003 sale, where it falls to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.

What might 2 FOREST DENE be worth now?

2 FOREST DENE might now be worth an estimated £1,232,074.

This is based on house price inflation of 136.9%, between July 2003 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 136.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 FOREST DENE of £520,000 on 9th July 2003. For the value to have increased from £520,000 to £1,232,074 over the 22 years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
