8 Montpellier Drive is a six-bedroom semi-detached house in Cheltenham (GL50 1TX). It has a recorded floor area of 302 m² (around 3251 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E.

Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68).

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 8 Montpellier Drive is modelled from its 302 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GL50 1TX. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 8 Montpellier Drive. 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 8 Montpellier Drive was lodged in January 2015 at band E and expired in January 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 8 Montpellier Drive. 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 27 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GL50 1TX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 Montpellier Drive 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.
