5 Popes Meade, Highnam, Gloucester, GL2 8LH

5 Popes Meade is a detached house in Highnam, Gloucester, Gloucester (GL2 8LH). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 30 years, with the last transfer in September 1996. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 130 m² the property is well over the postcode median (100 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 73% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £493,000 sits 447.8% above the 1996 sale of £90,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£64/sq ft) was about 70.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
