15 CHESTNUT CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lichfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 15 CHESTNUT CLOSE sales from November 1997 and April 2004 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 November 1997 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the April 2004 sale, where it falls to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might 15 CHESTNUT CLOSE be worth now?

15 CHESTNUT CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £423,078.

This is based on house price inflation of 113.7%, between April 2004 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Lichfield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 113.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 CHESTNUT CLOSE of £198,000 on 30th April 2004. For the value to have increased from £198,000 to £423,078 over the 21 years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 15 CHESTNUT CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Lichfield local authority area.
• The April 2004 sale price of £198,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
