8 DORSET ROAD 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 8 DORSET ROAD sales between March 1999 and April 2013 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 December 2001 sale was for 26% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% below the HPI over time, until the April 2013 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 8 DORSET ROAD be worth now?

8 DORSET ROAD might now be worth an estimated £430,256.

This is based on house price inflation of 72.1%, between April 2013 and July 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 72.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 DORSET ROAD of £250,000 on 30th April 2013. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £430,256 over the eleven years and nine months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 DORSET ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area.
• The April 2013 sale price of £250,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
