KINGSMEAD 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 three KINGSMEAD sales between August 2009 and June 2021 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 2013 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.

What might KINGSMEAD be worth now?

KINGSMEAD might now be worth an estimated £672,668.

This is based on house price inflation of 12.1%, between June 2021 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 12.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for KINGSMEAD of £599,950 on 25th June 2021. For the value to have increased from £599,950 to £672,668 over the four years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of KINGSMEAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Canterbury local authority area.
• The June 2021 sale price of £599,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of KINGSMEAD has not materially changed since June 2021.
