68 STAR LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 68 STAR LANE sales between March 1999 and December 2015 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 2007 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the December 2015 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might 68 STAR LANE be worth now?

68 STAR LANE might now be worth an estimated £252,217.

This is based on house price inflation of 52.9%, between December 2015 and March 2025, for semi-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 52.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 68 STAR LANE of £165,000 on 21st December 2015. For the value to have increased from £165,000 to £252,217 over the ten years and nine months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 68 STAR LANE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area.
• The December 2015 sale price of £165,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 68 STAR LANE has not materially changed since December 2015.
