18 ESSEX DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Staffordshire Moorlands local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 ESSEX DRIVE sales from February 2012 and August 2018 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 February 2012 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it rises to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might 18 ESSEX DRIVE be worth now?

18 ESSEX DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £332,031.

This is based on house price inflation of 32.8%, between August 2018 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Staffordshire Moorlands local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 32.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 ESSEX DRIVE of £249,950 on 9th August 2018. For the value to have increased from £249,950 to £332,031 over the seven years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 18 ESSEX DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Staffordshire Moorlands local authority area.
• The August 2018 sale price of £249,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
