About 5 Woolstone Lane
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Woolstone Lane is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Gotherington, Cheltenham, Cheltenham (GL52 9RF). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2024) shows a C (score 71).
Held since December 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm.

At 121 m² the property is well over the postcode median (90 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£200/sq ft) was about 18.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 5 Woolstone Lane is modelled from its 121 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in GL52 9RF. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 5 Woolstone Lane. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 5 Woolstone Lane was lodged in June 2024 at band C and is valid until June 2034. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 5 Woolstone Lane. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 5 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GL52 9RF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5 Woolstone Lane is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
