RAGSTONE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Canterbury local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two RAGSTONE COTTAGE sales from March 1999 and August 2014 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 March 1999 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it falls to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.

What might RAGSTONE COTTAGE be worth now?

RAGSTONE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £498,248.

This is based on house price inflation of 51%, between August 2014 and February 2025, for 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 51% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for RAGSTONE COTTAGE of £330,000 on 15th August 2014. For the value to have increased from £330,000 to £498,248 over the eleven years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of RAGSTONE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Canterbury local authority area.
• The August 2014 sale price of £330,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of RAGSTONE COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2014.
