1 LONGTYE DRIVE 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 LONGTYE DRIVE sales from October 2002 and June 2006 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 October 2002 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the June 2006 sale, where it rises to 110% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 110% above the HPI.

What might 1 LONGTYE DRIVE be worth now?

1 LONGTYE DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £1,195,589.

This is based on house price inflation of 101.5%, between June 2006 and February 2025, 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 101.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 LONGTYE DRIVE of £593,250 on 16th June 2006. For the value to have increased from £593,250 to £1,195,589 over the nineteen years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 LONGTYE DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Canterbury local authority area.
• The June 2006 sale price of £593,250 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 LONGTYE DRIVE has not materially changed since June 2006.
