51 LIPTRAPS LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 51 LIPTRAPS LANE sales between August 1995 and February 2004 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 May 1998 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the February 2004 sale, where it rises to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.

What might 51 LIPTRAPS LANE be worth now?

51 LIPTRAPS LANE might now be worth an estimated £449,060.

This is based on house price inflation of 135.1%, between February 2004 and February 2025, for semi-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 135.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 51 LIPTRAPS LANE of £191,000 on 27th February 2004. For the value to have increased from £191,000 to £449,060 over the 21 years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The February 2004 sale price of £191,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
