298 KENTS HILL ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Castle Point local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 298 KENTS HILL ROAD sales from July 2004 and October 2007 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 July 2004 sale was for 61% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 61% above the HPI over time, until the October 2007 sale, where it falls to 58% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 58% above the HPI.

What might 298 KENTS HILL ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 78.2%, between October 2007 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Castle Point local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 78.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 298 KENTS HILL ROAD of £425,000 on 26th October 2007. For the value to have increased from £425,000 to £757,501 over the sixteen years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
