1 DOWNS ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Canterbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 DOWNS ROAD sales from April 1996 and October 1998 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 April 1996 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the October 1998 sale, where it falls to 47% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% below the HPI.

What might 1 DOWNS ROAD be worth now?

1 DOWNS ROAD might now be worth an estimated £290,921.

This is based on house price inflation of 393.1%, between October 1998 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Canterbury local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 393.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 DOWNS ROAD of £59,000 on 6th October 1998. For the value to have increased from £59,000 to £290,921 over the 25 years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
