153A DOWNS ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 153A DOWNS ROAD sales between May 2005 and June 2021 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 2019 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it falls to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.

What might 153A DOWNS ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 11%, between June 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 11% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 153A DOWNS ROAD of £325,000 on 15th June 2021. For the value to have increased from £325,000 to £360,844 over the four years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
