About 2 Bishopstone Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Bishopstone Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Cheltenham (GL51 0UD). It has a recorded floor area of 172 m² (around 1850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2012) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (October 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from February 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
At 172 m² the property is well over the postcode median (101 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in October 2013 and unlisted since — roughly 13 years. Across 2003–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £481,000 is 42.7% above the 2013 sale price.

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 2 Bishopstone Close is modelled from its 172 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GL51 0UD. 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 2 Bishopstone Close. 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 2 Bishopstone Close was lodged in February 2012 at band D and expired in March 2022, 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. 1 application is matched to 2 Bishopstone Close. 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 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GL51 0UD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 2 Bishopstone Close 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.
