Overview

About 138 Prestbury Road

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

138 Prestbury Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Cheltenham (GL52 2DP). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 933 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2011) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from April 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1999–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £387,000 sits 51.8% above the 2016 sale of £255,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£273/sq ft) was about 31.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 87 m² it's 17.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (74 m² median across 23 EPCs). Last sold in November 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2007.

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 138 Prestbury Road is modelled from its 87 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GL52 2DP. 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 138 Prestbury Road. 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 138 Prestbury Road was lodged in April 2011 at band D and expired in April 2021, 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 138 Prestbury Road. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 18 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GL52 2DP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
138 Prestbury Road is in council tax band D. 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.
