The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Canterbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 WESTERN ESPLANADE sales between May 1998 and August 2024 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 August 2007 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the August 2024 sale, where it falls to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.
