32 THORN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cannock Chase local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 32 THORN CLOSE sales from March 1996 and October 2000 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 1996 sale was for 42% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% above the HPI over time, until the October 2000 sale, where it falls to 40% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% above the HPI.

What might 32 THORN CLOSE be worth now?

32 THORN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £466,659.

This is based on house price inflation of 245.7%, between October 2000 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cannock Chase local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 245.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 32 THORN CLOSE of £135,000 on 13th October 2000. For the value to have increased from £135,000 to £466,659 over the 23 years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 32 THORN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cannock Chase local authority area.
• The October 2000 sale price of £135,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
