GROVE HOUSE 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 GROVE HOUSE sales from September 2003 and July 2006 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 September 2003 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the July 2006 sale, where it rises to 61% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 61% above the HPI.

What might GROVE HOUSE be worth now?

GROVE HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £851,774.

This is based on house price inflation of 87.2%, between July 2006 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 87.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for GROVE HOUSE of £455,000 on 12th July 2006. For the value to have increased from £455,000 to £851,774 over the nineteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of GROVE HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area.
• The July 2006 sale price of £455,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of GROVE HOUSE has not materially changed since July 2006.
