In cash terms the typical GL20 5 home went from £44,500 in 1995 to £225,000 in 2026, roughly 5 times the price. Even after inflation that is a real rise of about 133%: homes here genuinely became dearer, not merely more expensive on paper. In inflation-adjusted terms the high-water mark was 2022. The market now sits about 15% below it, so a peak-time purchase has yet to recover its real value.
Year-on-year change in the GL20 5 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 (+23.7% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−8.2%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
Growth per year, over one to twenty years
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | −1.1% | −3.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +2.4% | −2.3% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.0% | −0.4% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +2.2% | −0.6% |
Each row is compound annual growth of the median; ONS CPIH supplies the real-terms deflator. Annualising irons out the cycle, which the chart above shows in full, and past growth records what happened rather than predicting anything.
How many homes change hands in GL20 5
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, 35 sales completed in GL20 5. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 178 sales a year before the financial crisis and 91 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.
The rental side of GL20 5
For renting purposes GL20 5 sits in Tewkesbury. The ONS average private rent there is £1,020 a month (May 2026). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £696 a month here against £1,663 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Tewkesbury
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Against the £225,000 median purchase price, a rent of £1,020 a month (£12,240 a year) works out at a 5.4% 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.
The shape of the GL20 5 market
Only 35 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes GL20 5 a thin market. Each figure rests on few transactions, so single streets can swing the median and the charts deserve a sceptical squint. Within GL20, this sector trades 20% below the district median: one of its district's cheaper corners.

What you could buy in GL20 now
The live side of the market holds 20 homes at the moment, listed by 6 agents publishing to HomesIndex.
These cover the whole GL20 district, not just GL20 5: live asking prices are collected per district.
Of everything listed here, 11% asks less than the sold record of comparable homes. The comparison behind each listing uses recent recorded sales of similar homes close by.
"Under comparable sales" compares each asking price with what similar homes nearby actually sold for. It is a starting point for a conversation, not a valuation. Always look at the home itself.

These asking prices come live from estate agents publishing feeds to HomesIndex, refreshed each Monday and Thursday. They are a sample of the market rather than its entirety, and an asking price is not a sale price.
The price of an extra bedroom in GL
Real sold prices by size across the GL area, straight from the Land Registry record. The jump between sizes is local: in some areas a third bedroom adds a quarter to the price, in others nearly four fifths, so a national rule of thumb will mislead you here.

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

Built from the last four years of recorded sales by form and bedroom count. Bedroom counts are estimated from EPC records (the register carries none), so expect a small number of homes one size adrift. Where too few homes exist to say anything meaningful, the cell is blank.
