BEECH TREE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BEECH TREE sales from March 2011 and May 2014 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 March 2011 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, which was also at 10% below the HPI.

What might BEECH TREE be worth now?

BEECH TREE might now be worth an estimated £775,420.

This is based on house price inflation of 58.2%, between May 2014 and February 2025, for 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 58.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BEECH TREE of £490,000 on 9th May 2014. For the value to have increased from £490,000 to £775,420 over the eleven years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BEECH TREE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area.
• The May 2014 sale price of £490,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BEECH TREE has not materially changed since May 2014.
