MILL 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 MILL COTTAGE sales from July 1997 and November 2004 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 July 1997 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the November 2004 sale, where it rises to 65% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 65% above the HPI.

What might MILL COTTAGE be worth now?

MILL COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £539,195.

This is based on house price inflation of 71.2%, between November 2004 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 71.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MILL COTTAGE of £314,950 on 19th November 2004. For the value to have increased from £314,950 to £539,195 over the 21 years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
