THE LODGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Maidstone local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE LODGE sales between May 1998 and August 2013 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 June 2004 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the August 2013 sale, where it rises to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.

What might THE LODGE be worth now?

THE LODGE might now be worth an estimated £837,092.

This is based on house price inflation of 69.1%, between August 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Maidstone local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 69.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE LODGE of £495,000 on 5th August 2013. For the value to have increased from £495,000 to £837,092 over the twelve years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE LODGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The August 2013 sale price of £495,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE LODGE has not materially changed since August 2013.
