The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 49 LOWER CORNICHE sales from November 2006 and March 2020 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 2006 sale was for 97% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 97% above the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it falls to 68% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 68% above the HPI.
49 LOWER CORNICHE might now be worth an estimated £900,375.
