Overview

About 1 Old Forge Cottage

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

1 Old Forge Cottage is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Stoke Orchard, Cheltenham, Cheltenham (GL52 7RY). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 110), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a corner plot and a cul-de-sac position.

At 69 m² it sits well below the postcode median (152 m² across 22 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£404/sq ft) was about 91.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold December 2022 for £300,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
