LORNA DOONE 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 LORNA DOONE sales between March 1998 and October 2018 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 September 2016 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.

What might LORNA DOONE be worth now?

LORNA DOONE might now be worth an estimated £676,173.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.8%, between October 2018 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 21.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LORNA DOONE of £555,000 on 30th October 2018. For the value to have increased from £555,000 to £676,173 over the seven years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LORNA DOONE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Sevenoaks local authority area.
• The October 2018 sale price of £555,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LORNA DOONE has not materially changed since October 2018.
