The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Canterbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 8 DOUGLAS ROAD sales between January 2004 and April 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 July 2017 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the April 2024 sale, where it falls to 28% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% below the HPI.
