65 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 65 DOWNS ROAD sales between March 1997 and December 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 July 2018 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the December 2023 sale, where it rises to 37% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% above the HPI.

What might 65 DOWNS ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 5.8%, between December 2023 and April 2026, 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 5.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 65 DOWNS ROAD of £445,000 on 15th December 2023. For the value to have increased from £445,000 to £470,785 over the three years and eight months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 65 DOWNS ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Folkestone and Hythe local authority area.
• The December 2023 sale price of £445,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
