20 THE NESS 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 four 20 THE NESS sales between October 1996 and May 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 February 2016 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the May 2024 sale, where it rises to 47% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% above the HPI.

What might 20 THE NESS be worth now?

The 6.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 THE NESS of £765,000 on 24th May 2024. For the value to have increased from £765,000 to £811,596 over the five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 20 THE NESS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Canterbury local authority area.
