CHINISTON Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CHINISTON sales from June 2001 and May 2003 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 June 2001 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the May 2003 sale, where it falls to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might CHINISTON be worth now?

CHINISTON might now be worth an estimated £545,930.

This is based on house price inflation of 135.3%, between May 2003 and February 2025, for 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 135.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CHINISTON of £232,000 on 2nd May 2003. For the value to have increased from £232,000 to £545,930 over the 22 years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CHINISTON has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area.
• The May 2003 sale price of £232,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CHINISTON has not materially changed since May 2003.
