About 38 Village Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
38 Village Road is a property in Cheltenham (GL51 0BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 456 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. At 42 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 14 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 39–50 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £124,000 sits 90.8% above the 2012 sale of £65,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). Last sold in February 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.

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 38 Village Road is modelled from its 42 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in GL51 0BJ. 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 38 Village Road. 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 38 Village Road was lodged in August 2011 at band D and expired in August 2021, 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 38 Village Road. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GL51 0BJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 38 Village Road is in council tax band A. 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.
