Aston Down market report GL6 6, Stroud

The GL6 6 (Aston Down) house price history in full, 1995 to 2026, in cash and in today's money. Underneath every chart here sit 2,665 registered sales in GL6 6 (Stroud) 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.

Sales recorded to 2026; rents are ONS figures for May 2026. The page rebuilds with each monthly release.

In short: 24 registered 2026 sales put the GL6 6 (Stroud) median at £636,000, up 33% on five years earlier, with a mean of £730,500, and by floor area homes here have averaged about £4,930 per square metre over the last five years. Everything rests on 2,665 completed HM Land Registry sales since 1995, refreshed monthly; valuations and asking prices play no part.

GL6 6 is a postcode sector: one group of streets inside GL6 (Stroud). This is as local as the public record gets, but sector medians move on fewer sales than a district's, so expect the lines to be lumpier.

What GL6 6 homes really sell for

The GL6 6 median stands at £636,000 for 2026, built from 24 registered sales; the mean, the figure usually quoted as the "average house price", is £730,500, somewhat above it, as happens wherever a market carries an expensive tail.

Price per square metre in GL6 6

Measured by floor area, the last five years of GL6 6 sales average about £4,930 per square metre. Price per square metre is the fair way to compare a one-bed flat with a four-bed house, and it comes from the Energy Performance Certificate on each sold home.

Against a national (England and Wales) median of £285,000, GL6 6 runs 123% above it.

In cash terms the typical GL6 6 home went from £80,000 in 1995 to £636,000 in 2026, roughly 8 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 266%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash.

The strongest year on record here is 1996 (+53.8% on the year before); the weakest, 2013 (−14.3%). 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

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

GL6 6 recorded 24 sales in the last twelve months of data. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 96 sales a year before the financial crisis and 65 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 kind of market GL6 6 is

Only 24 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes GL6 6 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. Within GL6, this sector trades 63% above the district median: one of the dearer corners of its district.

Rents around GL6 6

GL6 6 falls under Stroud, where the ONS puts the average private rent at £1,039 a month (May 2026 figures). The spread runs from £742 a month for a typical one-bed to £1,660 at four-plus bedrooms, which is size doing most of the pricing.

£1,039 a month is £12,468 a year, which against the £636,000 median sold price makes a gross yield of 2.0%. 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.
