Overview

About 7 The Chestnuts

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

7 The Chestnuts is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Gloucester (GL1 1YH). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 70 m² this is the 6th smallest of 9 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 54–189 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include notable views. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows a C (score 74). The latest certificate is from August 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £153,000 is 28% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£159/sq ft) was about 24.1% below the postcode norm.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 7 The Chestnuts is modelled from its 70 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GL1 1YH. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 7 The Chestnuts. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 7 The Chestnuts was lodged in August 2016 at band C and expired in August 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 7 The Chestnuts. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 19 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GL1 1YH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
7 The Chestnuts is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
