LITTLE BARTON Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sevenoaks local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LITTLE BARTON sales between June 2005 and January 2016 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 2008 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the January 2016 sale, where it falls to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might LITTLE BARTON be worth now?

LITTLE BARTON might now be worth an estimated £1,099,524.

This is based on house price inflation of 29.4%, between January 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Sevenoaks local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 29.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LITTLE BARTON of £849,500 on 18th January 2016. For the value to have increased from £849,500 to £1,099,524 over the eight years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LITTLE BARTON has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Sevenoaks local authority area.
• The January 2016 sale price of £849,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LITTLE BARTON has not materially changed since January 2016.
