How this area has changed
Typical prices for semi-detached houses, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Forge Close | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector TN25 6 | £395,000 | £299,995 +32% since | £259,995 +52% since | £200,750 +97% since | £195,000 +103% since |
| Shepway | – | Not enough sales | £230,000 | £178,000 | £175,000 |
The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
How homes change hands in TN25 6, over the last five years (505 sales):
- What sells: 44% detached, 33% semi-detached, 15% terraced, 5% other, 3% flats.
- 3% sold leasehold, and 24% were new builds.
- 83 sales in the last twelve months, against 178 in the same twelve months five years ago.
