DOWNTON LODGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two DOWNTON LODGE sales from December 1995 and December 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 December 1995 sale was for 112% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 112% above the HPI over time, until the December 2000 sale, where it falls to 89% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 89% above the HPI.

What might DOWNTON LODGE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 216.7%, between December 2000 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Shropshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 216.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for DOWNTON LODGE of £249,000 on 8th December 2000. For the value to have increased from £249,000 to £788,687 over the 25 years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
