Overview

About 3 Courtrai Flats

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

3 Courtrai Flats is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Cheltenham (GL51 7AF). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. At 58 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 48–75 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (67 versus a worst of 46). Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (November 2020) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in August 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79).

It hasn't traded since September 1996, a hold of 30 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. Today's modelled estimate of £159,000 sits 253.3% above the 1996 sale of £45,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£72/sq ft) was about 66% below the postcode norm.

How to read this page

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 3 Courtrai Flats is modelled from its 58 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in GL51 7AF. 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 3 Courtrai Flats. 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 3 Courtrai Flats was lodged in November 2020 at band D and is valid until November 2030. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 3 Courtrai Flats. 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 23 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GL51 7AF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 Courtrai Flats is in council tax band B. 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.
