4 GALENA CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Maidstone local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 GALENA CLOSE sales from January 2006 and October 2024 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 January 2006 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it rises to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 4 GALENA CLOSE be worth now?

4 GALENA CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £304,254.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.1%, between October 2024 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Maidstone local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 GALENA CLOSE of £295,000 on 7th October 2024. For the value to have increased from £295,000 to £304,254 over the one year and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 GALENA CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The October 2024 sale price of £295,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 GALENA CLOSE has not materially changed since October 2024.
