38 WESTERN ESPLANADE 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 two 38 WESTERN ESPLANADE sales from November 1997 and May 2010 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 1997 sale was for 96% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 96% above the HPI over time, until the May 2010 sale, where it falls to 77% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 77% above the HPI.

What might 38 WESTERN ESPLANADE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 87.3%, between May 2010 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 87.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 38 WESTERN ESPLANADE of £540,000 on 24th May 2010. For the value to have increased from £540,000 to £1,011,676 over the fifteen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
