LODGE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lichfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LODGE COTTAGE sales from February 1996 and July 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 February 1996 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it rises to 53% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% above the HPI.

What might LODGE COTTAGE be worth now?

LODGE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £781,261.

This is based on house price inflation of 62.8%, between July 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Lichfield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 62.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LODGE COTTAGE of £480,000 on 23rd July 2014. For the value to have increased from £480,000 to £781,261 over the eleven years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LODGE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Lichfield local authority area.
• The July 2014 sale price of £480,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LODGE COTTAGE has not materially changed since July 2014.
