8 Beechmore Drive, Up Hatherley, Cheltenham, GL51 3NT

8 Beechmore Drive is a five-bedroom detached house in Up Hatherley, Cheltenham, Cheltenham (GL51 3NT). It has a recorded floor area of 141 m² (around 1518 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since September 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 141 m² the property is well over the postcode median (99 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £571,000 sits 388% above the 1997 sale of £117,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£77/sq ft) was about 26.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
