Local market context
1 Waterloo Place is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Cheltenham (GL50 1XY). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2025) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in February 2021 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88).
It hasn't traded since July 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 105 m² the property is well over the postcode median (43 m² across 72 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £443,000 sits 663.8% above the 1998 sale of £58,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£51/sq ft) was about 80.2% below the postcode norm. 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
