SUNDOWN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dover local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SUNDOWN sales from September 1995 and October 2002 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 1995 sale was for 34% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% below the HPI over time, until the October 2002 sale, where it falls to 37% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% below the HPI.

What might SUNDOWN be worth now?

SUNDOWN might now be worth an estimated £315,718.

This is based on house price inflation of 142.9%, between October 2002 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dover local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 142.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SUNDOWN of £130,000 on 21st October 2002. For the value to have increased from £130,000 to £315,718 over the 23 years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SUNDOWN has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dover local authority area.
• The October 2002 sale price of £130,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SUNDOWN has not materially changed since October 2002.
