In cash terms the typical GL14 3 home went from £45,000 in 1995 to £240,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 145%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2008. The market now sits about 16% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the GL14 3 median
Each bar is the change on the year before, in cash. The zero line is the boundary between rising and falling.
The strongest year on record here is 2003 (+26.1% on the year before); the weakest, 2009 (−14.8%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What GL14 3 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +2.1% | −0.3% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.8% | −2.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.5% | +0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.4% | −0.4% |
The table annualises median growth over each period, with the real column deflated by ONS CPIH. Smoothing hides the cycle (see the chart above for it), and none of this forecasts: it is the record.
Transaction volumes
The year-by-year sales count
Annual recorded sales. The post-2008 trough is the financial crisis; treat the final bar as provisional while registrations catch up.
Over the last twelve months of data, 22 sales completed in GL14 3. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 87 sales a year before the financial crisis and 55 a year over the last five. Volume matters as much as price: when few homes change hands, the median gets jumpy and a single street can move the figure. The most recent year is always still filling in, because sales appear in the Land Registry weeks or months after completion.
What tenants pay around GL14 3
The local authority for GL14 3 is Forest of Dean, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £823 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £590 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,442, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Forest of Dean
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £240,000 median purchase price, a rent of £823 a month (£9,876 a year) works out at a 4.1% gross yield, a ceiling figure that ignores letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax. Because rents are local-authority statistics, districts sharing the authority share the figure.
Reading the GL14 3 market
This is a thin market: 22 sales in the last twelve months of data. With that few transactions, one street selling well (or one block of cheap transfers) can move the median, so read the year lines as a range rather than a verdict. Expect volatility in the annual figures: swings past ten per cent show up repeatedly above, and they usually reflect the mix of homes sold in a given year rather than genuine repricing.

Moving up a bedroom in GL: the cost
What homes of each size actually sold for across the GL area, from the Land Registry record. Size steps are fiercely local. A third bedroom adds a quarter to the price in some areas and close to four fifths in others, which is why no national rule of thumb survives contact with a real market.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £329,250 | £450,000 (+37%) | £685,000 (+52%) | £1,050,000 (+53%) |

Four years of recorded sales, split by built form and bedroom count. The register does not state bedrooms, so sizes come from each home's EPC record and a few homes will land one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
