5 ALDER ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

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 5 ALDER ROAD sales from April 1995 and January 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 April 1995 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the January 2010 sale, where it rises to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.

What might 5 ALDER ROAD be worth now?

5 ALDER ROAD might now be worth an estimated £549,608.

This is based on house price inflation of 88.2%, between January 2010 and February 2025, for 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 88.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 ALDER ROAD of £292,000 on 22nd January 2010. For the value to have increased from £292,000 to £549,608 over the fourteen years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 ALDER ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area.
• The January 2010 sale price of £292,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
