53 HIGH RIDGE 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 two 53 HIGH RIDGE sales from August 2004 and September 2015 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 2004 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the September 2015 sale, where it falls to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 53 HIGH RIDGE be worth now?

53 HIGH RIDGE might now be worth an estimated £386,554.

This is based on house price inflation of 53.7%, between September 2015 and June 2025, for semi-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 53.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 53 HIGH RIDGE of £251,500 on 25th September 2015. For the value to have increased from £251,500 to £386,554 over the ten years and three months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 53 HIGH RIDGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area.
• The September 2015 sale price of £251,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
