THE MOUNT 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 three THE MOUNT sales between October 2002 and April 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 April 2017 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the April 2021 sale, where it rises to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might THE MOUNT be worth now?

THE MOUNT might now be worth an estimated £521,406.

This is based on house price inflation of 13.3%, between April 2021 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 13.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE MOUNT of £460,000 on 7th April 2021. For the value to have increased from £460,000 to £521,406 over the four years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE MOUNT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area.
• The April 2021 sale price of £460,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE MOUNT has not materially changed since April 2021.
