Overview

About 5 Elm Close

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

5 Elm Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Prestbury, Cheltenham, Cheltenham (GL52 3ED). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 740 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £356,000 sits 65.6% above the 2013 sale of £215,000. At 69 m² it sits well below the postcode median (99 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 80% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in January 2013, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
