5A ELM WOOD 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 two 5A ELM WOOD CLOSE sales from July 2001 and July 2013 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 July 2001 sale was for 42% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% above the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it falls to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.

What might 5A ELM WOOD CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 68%, between July 2013 and March 2025, for semi-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 68% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5A ELM WOOD CLOSE of £237,000 on 17th July 2013. For the value to have increased from £237,000 to £398,076 over the twelve years and four months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
