2 THE RIDINGS 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 three 2 THE RIDINGS sales between March 2004 and November 2016 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 November 2014 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the November 2016 sale, where it falls to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.

What might 2 THE RIDINGS be worth now?

2 THE RIDINGS might now be worth an estimated £659,845.

This is based on house price inflation of 25.7%, between November 2016 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 25.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 THE RIDINGS of £525,000 on 29th November 2016. For the value to have increased from £525,000 to £659,845 over the nine years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 THE RIDINGS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Canterbury local authority area.
• The November 2016 sale price of £525,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 THE RIDINGS has not materially changed since November 2016.
