6 FURNACE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Staffordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 6 FURNACE CLOSE sales from May 1996 and August 2006 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 May 1996 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the August 2006 sale, where it falls to 38% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% below the HPI.

What might 6 FURNACE CLOSE be worth now?

6 FURNACE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £271,903.

This is based on house price inflation of 70%, between August 2006 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the South Staffordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 70% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 FURNACE CLOSE of £159,950 on 4th August 2006. For the value to have increased from £159,950 to £271,903 over the nineteen years and two months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 FURNACE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Staffordshire local authority area.
• The August 2006 sale price of £159,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 6 FURNACE CLOSE has not materially changed since August 2006.
