53 THE SPIRES 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 three 53 THE SPIRES sales between September 2001 and September 2013 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 January 2007 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the September 2013 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might 53 THE SPIRES be worth now?

53 THE SPIRES might now be worth an estimated £525,333.

This is based on house price inflation of 64.2%, between September 2013 and December 2024, 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 64.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 53 THE SPIRES of £320,000 on 19th September 2013. For the value to have increased from £320,000 to £525,333 over the ten years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 53 THE SPIRES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Canterbury local authority area.
• The September 2013 sale price of £320,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
