1 LONG REACH CLOSE 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 1 LONG REACH CLOSE sales between July 1996 and July 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 August 2003 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the July 2024 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might 1 LONG REACH CLOSE be worth now?

1 LONG REACH CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £525,982.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.1%, between July 2024 and March 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 3.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 LONG REACH CLOSE of £510,000 on 10th July 2024. For the value to have increased from £510,000 to £525,982 over the one year and four months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 LONG REACH CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Canterbury local authority area.
