IVYDENE 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 IVYDENE sales from May 2002 and October 2012 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 May 2002 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the October 2012 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might IVYDENE be worth now?

IVYDENE might now be worth an estimated £456,416.

This is based on house price inflation of 82.6%, between October 2012 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 82.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for IVYDENE of £249,995 on 31st October 2012. For the value to have increased from £249,995 to £456,416 over the thirteen years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of IVYDENE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area.
• The October 2012 sale price of £249,995 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of IVYDENE has not materially changed since October 2012.
