1a, Church Road, St Marks, Cheltenham, GL51 7AL
About 1a
1a is a detached house in St. Marks, Cheltenham, Cheltenham (GL51 7AL). It has a recorded floor area of 309 m² (around 3326 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2022) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since March 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 309 m² the property is well over the postcode median (96 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2001–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £779,000 sits 105% above the 2008 sale of £380,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£114/sq ft) was about 46.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
