2 THE FORGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 THE FORGE sales from October 2004 and February 2005 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 October 2004 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the February 2005 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 2 THE FORGE be worth now?

2 THE FORGE might now be worth an estimated £188,690.

This is based on house price inflation of 74.7%, between February 2005 and June 2025, for semi-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 74.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 THE FORGE of £108,000 on 25th February 2005. For the value to have increased from £108,000 to £188,690 over the nineteen years and eight months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 THE FORGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Shropshire local authority area.
• The February 2005 sale price of £108,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 THE FORGE has not materially changed since February 2005.
