26 MACAULAY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tonbridge and Malling local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 MACAULAY CLOSE sales from September 1996 and January 2020 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 1996 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 26 MACAULAY CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 14.6%, between January 2020 and February 2025, for 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 14.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 MACAULAY CLOSE of £445,000 on 20th January 2020. For the value to have increased from £445,000 to £510,113 over the four years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
