FIRFIELD COTTAGE 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 FIRFIELD COTTAGE sales from August 1995 and November 2015 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 August 1995 sale was for 21% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% above the HPI over time, until the November 2015 sale, where it rises to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.

What might FIRFIELD COTTAGE be worth now?

FIRFIELD COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £495,306.

This is based on house price inflation of 50.1%, between November 2015 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 50.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FIRFIELD COTTAGE of £330,000 on 12th November 2015. For the value to have increased from £330,000 to £495,306 over the ten years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FIRFIELD COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Staffordshire Moorlands local authority area.
• The November 2015 sale price of £330,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FIRFIELD COTTAGE has not materially changed since November 2015.
