| 1995 | £123,800 | £269,122 | 48 |
In cash terms the typical GL5 5 home went from £123,800 in 1995 to £540,000 in 2026, roughly 4 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 101%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash. The real-terms peak came in 2020, and today's median remains roughly 23% under it: a 2020 buyer is still waiting to get that price back in today's money.
Year-on-year change in the GL5 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 (+48.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2008 (−26.0%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
What GL5 5 has returned, per year
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +8.4% | +5.8% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +4.6% | −0.2% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +3.3% | −0.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.1% | +0.3% |
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.
The turnover behind the prices
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.
The register shows 25 GL5 5 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 81 sales a year before the financial crisis and 61 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.
Reading the GL5 5 market
This is a thin market: 25 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. 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. Against the GL5 district median, GL5 5 sits 69% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.
What tenants pay around GL5 5
GL5 5 falls under Stroud, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,039 a month (May 2026 figures). Size sets most of the rent: one-beds average £742 a month here against £1,660 for four or more bedrooms.
Average monthly rent by size, Stroud
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £540,000 median sold price, £1,039 a month is £12,468 a year, a gross yield of 2.3%: 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.

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.
