Overview

About The Nest

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

The Nest is a detached house in Southam, Cheltenham, Cheltenham (GL52 3PE). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 943 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows an F (score 27), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 44). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £396,000 sits 68.5% above the 2016 sale of £235,000. At 88 m² it sits well below the postcode median (147 m² across 3 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021.
