Overview

About 19 Desert Orchid Road

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

19 Desert Orchid Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Prestbury, Cheltenham, Cheltenham (GL52 5FD). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft) and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2018) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 87).

It hasn't traded since June 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £457,000 sits 112.6% above the 2009 sale of £215,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£182/sq ft) was about 29.7% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include new windows and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
