About Apartment 6
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Apartment 6 is a one-bedroom end-of-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 1900-1929. 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, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (76 versus a worst of 46). The latest certificate (July 2023) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in May 2010 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Average. Main heating runs on electricity.
Held since August 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 81% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £163,000 is 38.7% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£352/sq ft) was about 25.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 Apartment 6 is modelled from its 31 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in GL50 1DU. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Apartment 6. 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 Apartment 6 was lodged in July 2023 at band C and is valid until July 2033. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Apartment 6. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 23 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GL50 1DU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
