Home & Property
Buying, renting or just curious about the area — house prices, rents, council tax, schools, planning applications, home energy ratings, connectivity, recycling and bin collections all in one place.
Our house prices page tracks sales from Land Registry Price Paid Data, with a full year-by-year archive going back to 2023, while rents shows the average private rent by bedrooms and property type, month by month since 2015. Our home affordability page then asks how many of those homes a typical full-time earner could actually afford. Alongside them, housing supply shows net new homes and student accommodation, and the total number of properties on the council tax list shows how the town’s housing stock has grown over time. Our council tax page shows charges by band for the borough and the five parishes that set their own precept, and home energy ratings maps how energy efficient the town’s homes are, ward by ward. Thinking about an extension or new development nearby? Planning applications are pulled directly from Cheltenham Borough Council’s register, and shown on a map.
Moving with children? Schools & catchment areas covers primary, secondary, independent and special schools, with each school’s Ofsted rating and full inspection history, and separate primary and secondary catchment maps, and nurseries and childcare lists every registered nursery, pre-school and out-of-school club with its latest Ofsted outcome. Studying here? The University of Gloucestershire page maps its campuses in Cheltenham and Gloucester and shows what is taught at each.
Checking whether an address is well connected? Broadband coverage is broken down by ward, and mobile coverage covers 2G to 5G across all four networks. Recycling covers your nearest recycling centres and bring banks, what can be recycled, and refill and plastic-free shopping, and bin collections shows whether it’s Week 1 or Week 2 and what goes in each bin. Together these give a fuller picture of an area than any single source on its own.
Choosing between neighbourhoods? Our Cheltenham wards page maps all 20 electoral wards and compares them on crime, house prices, broadband and elections, and each ward has its own profile with its councillors and the nearest GPs, dentists, schools, parks and other local services.
