Overview

About 81 River Leys

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

81 River Leys is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Swindon Village, Cheltenham, Cheltenham (GL51 9SA). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2012) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89). The latest certificate is from October 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 55 m² the property is well over the postcode median (39 m² across 54 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1997–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.5% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£380/sq ft) was about 84.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold November 2022 for £225,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 81 River Leys is modelled from its 55 m² EPC floor area, its 7 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GL51 9SA. 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. 7 sales are recorded for 81 River Leys. 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 81 River Leys was lodged in October 2012 at band C and expired in October 2022, 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. 1 application is matched to 81 River Leys. 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 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GL51 9SA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
81 River Leys 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.
