2 NURSERY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 NURSERY CLOSE sales from June 1998 and August 2003 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 1998 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the August 2003 sale, where it falls to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.

What might 2 NURSERY CLOSE be worth now?

2 NURSERY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £401,190.

This is based on house price inflation of 132.6%, between August 2003 and February 2025, for semi-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 132.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 NURSERY CLOSE of £172,500 on 21st August 2003. For the value to have increased from £172,500 to £401,190 over the 22 years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 NURSERY CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area.
• The August 2003 sale price of £172,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
