5 THE BRIDGE APPROACH 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 5 THE BRIDGE APPROACH sales from March 2012 and September 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 March 2012 sale was for 42% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% below the HPI over time, until the September 2024 sale, where it rises to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 5 THE BRIDGE APPROACH be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 6%, between September 2024 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 6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 THE BRIDGE APPROACH of £375,000 on 12th September 2024. For the value to have increased from £375,000 to £397,345 over the one year and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
