Arlingham market report GL2, Gloucester
The GL2 (Arlingham) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Underneath every chart here sit 36,083 registered sales in GL2 (Gloucester) since 1995, the HM Land Registry record of what buyers really paid, with ONS figures covering rents. Nothing is a valuation, an estimate or an asking price.
Covers registered sales to July 2026 and ONS rents for May 2026. Refreshed monthly as new sales reach the register.
In short: 334 registered 2026 sales put the GL2 (Gloucester) median at £300,000, up 13% on five years earlier, with a mean of £326,100, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £3,400 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 36,083 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.
The postcode district GL2 covering Arlingham, Cambridge, Churcham sits in Gloucester. A district is the workhorse unit for reading a market: local enough to be meaningful, busy enough that the medians rest on a steady flow of sales.

| 1996 | £53,000 | £111,775 | 1,057 |
| 1995 | £53,500 | £116,301 | 759 |
In cash terms the typical GL2 home went from £53,500 in 1995 to £300,000 in 2026, roughly 6 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 158%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. Measured in today's money the market peaked in 2022; the current median sits about 12% 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 GL2 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 (+20.6% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−10.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Annualised returns
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +1.7% | −0.7% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.5% | −2.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.9% | +0.5% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.0% | +0.2% |
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.
Detached, semi, terraced, flat: four markets in one
A single median hides the split beneath it. Sales of semi-detached homes dominate the record here, 32% of the typed total. A detached home currently trades at £420,000 against £170,000 for a flat, 2.5 times the price.

The turnover behind the prices
Sales per year, counted
Each bar is a year's recorded sales. 2008's dip is the financial crisis, and the newest bar always grows for a while as late registrations arrive.
The monthly pulse, last five years
Sales as they reached the register each month. Expect the seasonal sawtooth, and discount the newest months while late entries land.
The register shows 796 GL2 sales across the most recent twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 1,327 sales a year before the financial crisis and 892 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.
Rents around GL2
The local authority for GL2 is Gloucester, and its ONS average private rent currently stands at £1,105 a month (May 2026 figures). A one-bed averages £738 a month here and a four-or-more-bed £1,642, so size does most of the work in setting the rent.
Average monthly rent by size, Gloucester
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £300,000 median sold price, £1,105 a month is £13,260 a year, a gross yield of 4.4%: gross, before letting costs, voids, maintenance and tax, so a ceiling rather than a promise. Rents are published at local-authority level, so nearby districts in the same authority share these figures.

What you could buy in GL2 now
Everything above is what homes in GL2 sold for. This is what you could actually buy today: 206 homes currently on the market from 11 agents publishing to HomesIndex, at a typical asking price 10% above the GL2 median sold price.
Of everything listed here, 40% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
- Lanham Gardens, Quedgeley, Quedgeley
- The Green, Frampton On Severn, Gloucester
- Muzzle Patch, Tibberton, Gloucester, Tibberton
The "under comparable sales" label measures each asking price against real nearby sales of similar homes: an opening position for a conversation rather than a valuation. The home itself still needs looking at.

Bedroom by bedroom: GL prices by size
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.
| Type | 1 bed | 2 bed | 3 bed | 4 bed | 5 bed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | — | £329,250 | £450,000 (+37%) | £685,000 (+52%) | £1,050,000 (+53%) |
| Semi-detached | £245,000 | £280,000 (+14%) | £330,000 (+18%) | £452,000 (+37%) | £727,500 (+61%) |
| Terraced | £215,000 | £250,000 (+16%) | £300,000 (+20%) | £435,000 (+45%) | £665,000 (+53%) |

Medians of recorded sales over the last four years, by built form and bedroom count. Sold homes carry no advertised bedroom count, so sizes are estimated from their EPC records; a small number of homes will sit one size out. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
