Overview

About Wellswood House

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

Wellswood House is a detached house in Battledown, Cheltenham, Cheltenham (GL52 6NY). It has a recorded floor area of 287 m² (around 3089 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since September 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Across 1996–1997, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,023,000 sits 258.9% above the 1997 sale of £285,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£92/sq ft) was about 74.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs).
