HIGHGATE LODGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Canterbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HIGHGATE LODGE sales from January 2007 and October 2013 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 January 2007 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the October 2013 sale, where it falls to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.

What might HIGHGATE LODGE be worth now?

HIGHGATE LODGE might now be worth an estimated £590,718.

This is based on house price inflation of 68.8%, between October 2013 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 68.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGHGATE LODGE of £350,000 on 15th October 2013. For the value to have increased from £350,000 to £590,718 over the twelve years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGHGATE LODGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Canterbury local authority area.
• The October 2013 sale price of £350,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGHGATE LODGE has not materially changed since October 2013.
