About 16 Morningside Courtyard
16 Morningside Courtyard is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Prestbury, Cheltenham, Cheltenham (GL52 3BU). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. At 58 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 22 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 57–101 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (June 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 58 m² it sits well below the postcode median (88 m² across 24 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Sold November 2023 for £200,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 2010–2023, sale prices on this property compounded at 1.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £232,000 is 16% above the 2023 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£320/sq ft) was about 50.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2011.
