The land is situated within an extremely affluent area. Property prices in Sevenoaks are 89% above the county average and 109% above the national average. These premium house prices reflect the desirability of the area as a place to live and own property - including land.

LAND VALUES
Pasture land prices in the region are 15% higher than the average as land values continued to rise last quarter.

In the past year, land values have risen 6%, outperforming the FTSE 100, UK house prices and interest from savings in the bank.

These increases are also outpacing inflation as land continues to be seen as a tangible safe-haven for investment. Investors are also competing with a wide variety of lifestyle and environmentally-motivated buyers as demand once again outstrips supply.

This imbalance between supply and demand doesn't look to change and will continue to drive up land values.
