About Fromebridge Cottage
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Fromebridge Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Whitminster, Gloucester, Gloucester (GL2 7PD). It has a recorded floor area of 127 m² (around 1367 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 99), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views and a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Fromebridge Cottage is modelled from its 127 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GL2 7PD. 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. 4 sales are recorded for Fromebridge Cottage. 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 Fromebridge Cottage was lodged in March 2016 at band D and expired in March 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to Fromebridge Cottage. 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GL2 7PD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Fromebridge Cottage is in council tax band E. 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.
