The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Canterbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 7 WEST HILL ROAD sales from November 2004 and May 2023 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 2004 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it rises to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.
7 WEST HILL ROAD might now be worth an estimated £429,428.
This is based on house price inflation of 3%, between May 2023 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 3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 WEST HILL ROAD of £417,000 on 18th May 2023. For the value to have increased from £417,000 to £429,428 over the two years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
