WOODCOTE 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 two WOODCOTE sales from May 1996 and April 1999 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 May 1996 sale was for 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the April 1999 sale, where it rises to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might WOODCOTE be worth now?

WOODCOTE might now be worth an estimated £486,255.

This is based on house price inflation of 298.6%, between April 1999 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 298.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WOODCOTE of £122,000 on 29th April 1999. For the value to have increased from £122,000 to £486,255 over the 26 years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WOODCOTE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Maidstone local authority area.
• The April 1999 sale price of £122,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WOODCOTE has not materially changed since April 1999.
