26 HELSTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Stafford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 26 HELSTON CLOSE sales between March 2002 and May 2016 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 December 2005 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it rises to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.

What might 26 HELSTON CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 41.6%, between May 2016 and June 2025, for semi-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 41.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 HELSTON CLOSE of £102,500 on 25th May 2016. For the value to have increased from £102,500 to £145,153 over the eight years and eleven months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 26 HELSTON CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Stafford local authority area.
