In cash terms the typical GL17 9 home went from £47,000 in 1995 to £256,500 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Inflation explains only part of it: in today's money the rise is still about 151%, a genuine increase in what a home here costs. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 27% below that. Someone who bought at the 2022 peak has not yet seen that price back in real terms.
Year-on-year change in the GL17 9 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 2002 (+27.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2011 (−20.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What GL17 9 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −14.5% | −16.5% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +1.8% | −2.9% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.6% | +0.2% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +1.8% | −1.0% |
Compound annual growth of the median sold price; the real column deflates by ONS CPIH. Annualised figures smooth the cycle (the chart above shows the cycle), and past growth is a record, not a forecast.
The turnover behind the prices
The year-by-year sales count
Recorded sales per year. The dip after 2008 is the financial crisis; the last bar is still filling in as recent sales get registered.
Over the last twelve months of data, 32 sales completed in GL17 9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 131 sales a year before the financial crisis and 76 a year over the last five. Price without volume misleads: a median built on few sales jumps around, and one street can tilt it. Keep in mind too that the latest year is still filling in, since sales reach the register weeks or months after completion.
What tenants pay around GL17 9
The local authority for GL17 9 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.
£823 a month is £9,876 a year, which against the £256,500 median sold price makes a gross yield of 3.9%. Gross means before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax: treat it as a ceiling. The ONS publishes rents by local authority, so neighbouring districts under the same authority share these numbers.
Reading the GL17 9 market
Only 32 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes GL17 9 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. The record here is jumpy: year-on-year moves of ten per cent or more are common in the chart above, mostly a function of which homes happened to sell rather than the market lurching.

Bedroom by bedroom: GL prices by size
Real sold prices by size across the GL area, straight from the Land Registry record. How much a size step costs is a local fact: the third-bedroom premium runs from about a quarter to nearly four fifths depending on the area, and national rules of thumb miss it.
