PENTLAND 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 PENTLAND HOUSE sales from August 1998 and April 2022 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 August 1998 sale was for 95% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 95% above the HPI over time, until the April 2022 sale, where it rises to 98% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 98% above the HPI.

What might PENTLAND HOUSE be worth now?

PENTLAND HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £1,870,022.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.9%, between April 2022 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 3.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for PENTLAND HOUSE of £1,800,000 on 1st April 2022. For the value to have increased from £1,800,000 to £1,870,022 over the one year and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of PENTLAND HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Sevenoaks local authority area.
• The April 2022 sale price of £1,800,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of PENTLAND HOUSE has not materially changed since April 2022.
