23 MINERVA CLOSE 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 four 23 MINERVA CLOSE sales between June 2004 and September 2022 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 May 2018 sale was for 36% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 36% below the HPI over time, until the September 2022 sale, where it rises to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might 23 MINERVA CLOSE be worth now?

23 MINERVA CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £232,032.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.8%, between September 2022 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 1.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 23 MINERVA CLOSE of £228,000 on 16th September 2022. For the value to have increased from £228,000 to £232,032 over the three years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 23 MINERVA CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Staffordshire Moorlands local authority area.
• The September 2022 sale price of £228,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 23 MINERVA CLOSE has not materially changed since September 2022.
