How affordable would the Stranger Things Homes be in the UK Today VS 1980’s? 

We at Chartwell Funding have reviewed some of the more popular properties within the Stranger Things universe. From The Munson's Trailer, Hopper's Cabin in the woods to the eerie Creel House.

At Chartwell Funding, we are not experts in American properties, so in this article we have had a fun go at estimating the properties on average purchase price for similar properties within the UK (The South, Midlands and North). We aim to look at what the properties might have cost in the 1980’s compared to 2025. We’ll break down the likely property price, deposit required (10%), and also the stamp duty that would be chargeable.

Join us as we dig into the financials and figure out if the Upside Down is in fact scarier than the housing market today.
