The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Medway local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 279 MAIDSTONE ROAD sales from October 2004 and August 2012 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 October 2004 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it falls to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.
279 MAIDSTONE ROAD might now be worth an estimated £472,664.
This is based on house price inflation of 105.5%, between August 2012 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Medway local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 105.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 279 MAIDSTONE ROAD of £230,000 on 30th August 2012. For the value to have increased from £230,000 to £472,664 over the thirteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
