Overview

About 42c

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

42c is a three-bedroom detached house in Cheltenham (GL50 1UL). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 832 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2009) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 77 m² this is the 71st smallest of 100 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 25–320 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to B, with this unit at the top.

Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £362,000 sits 206.8% above the 1996 sale of £118,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£142/sq ft) was about 45.9% below the postcode norm.

Method

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 42c is modelled from its 77 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in GL50 1UL. 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 42c. 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 42c was lodged in August 2009 at band B and expired in August 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 42c. 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 31 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GL50 1UL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
42c is in council tax band D. 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.
