Overview

About Apartment 2

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

Apartment 2 is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cheltenham (GL50 1DU). It has a recorded floor area of 31 m² (around 334 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (February 2022) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (February 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). Main heating runs on electricity. At 31 m² this is the 4th smallest of 6 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 27–31 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 6 units on file.

It hasn't traded since August 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. At 31 m² it sits well below the postcode median (51 m² across 21 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £175,000 is 48.9% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£352/sq ft) was about 21.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
