34 LONG REACH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Canterbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 34 LONG REACH CLOSE sales between February 1998 and August 2023 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 October 2018 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 34 LONG REACH CLOSE be worth now?
