WILLOW DOWN 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 WILLOW DOWN sales between March 2008 and December 2024 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 2014 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the December 2024 sale, where it falls to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might WILLOW DOWN be worth now?

WILLOW DOWN might now be worth an estimated £572,020.

This is based on house price deflation of 1.4%, between December 2024 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 1.4% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for WILLOW DOWN of £580,000 on 16th December 2024. For the value to have decreased from £580,000 to £572,020 over the one year and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WILLOW DOWN has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area.
