225 DOWNS ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 225 DOWNS ROAD sales between November 1995 and August 2025 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 2017 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the August 2025 sale, where it falls to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might 225 DOWNS ROAD be worth now?

The 1.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 225 DOWNS ROAD of £378,000 on 27th August 2025. For the value to have increased from £378,000 to £384,836 over the one year and four months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
