SCHOOL 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 SCHOOL HOUSE sales from January 1997 and January 1999 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 1997 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the January 1999 sale, which was also at 19% above the HPI.

What might SCHOOL HOUSE be worth now?

SCHOOL HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £629,198.

This is based on house price inflation of 395.4%, between January 1999 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 395.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SCHOOL HOUSE of £127,000 on 15th January 1999. For the value to have increased from £127,000 to £629,198 over the 25 years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SCHOOL HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area.
• The January 1999 sale price of £127,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SCHOOL HOUSE has not materially changed since January 1999.
