FRONT LODGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stafford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four FRONT LODGE sales between October 2003 and October 2014 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 2013 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it rises to 44% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% above the HPI.

What might FRONT LODGE be worth now?

FRONT LODGE might now be worth an estimated £542,186.

This is based on house price inflation of 47.3%, between October 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Stafford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 47.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FRONT LODGE of £368,000 on 31st October 2014. For the value to have increased from £368,000 to £542,186 over the nine years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FRONT LODGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Stafford local authority area.
• The October 2014 sale price of £368,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FRONT LODGE has not materially changed since October 2014.
