LORNE HOUSE 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 two LORNE HOUSE sales from October 2001 and August 2009 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 October 2001 sale was for 261% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 261% above the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it rises to 309% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 309% above the HPI.

What might LORNE HOUSE be worth now?

LORNE HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £3,858,668.

This is based on house price inflation of 92.9%, between August 2009 and December 2024, 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 92.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LORNE HOUSE of £2,000,000 on 26th August 2009. For the value to have increased from £2,000,000 to £3,858,668 over the fourteen years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The August 2009 sale price of £2,000,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
