In cash terms the typical GL6 9 home went from £93,500 in 1995 to £647,000 in 2026, roughly 7 times the price. Adjusted for inflation it still comes to a real rise of roughly 218%, so homes here got dearer in substance, not only in cash.
Year-on-year change in the GL6 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 2001 (+43.4% on the year before); the weakest, 2015 (−17.3%). Single-year swings like these are why the annualised table below matters more than any one year's headline.
The long view: annualised growth
| Period | Cash, per year | Real terms, per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 years (since 2025) | +40.7% | +37.4% |
| 5 years (since 2021) | +7.8% | +2.8% |
| 10 years (since 2016) | +5.5% | +2.1% |
| 20 years (since 2006) | +3.9% | +1.1% |
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.
Transaction volumes
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, 10 sales completed in GL6 9. Like most of England and Wales, turnover never fully recovered from 2008: the market here averaged 77 sales a year before the financial crisis and 47 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 GL6 9
GL6 9 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.
Average monthly rent by size, Stroud
ONS Price Index of Private Rents, May 2026.
Set against the £647,000 median sold price, £1,039 a month is £12,468 a year, a gross yield of 1.9%: 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 kind of market GL6 9 is
Only 10 sales completed here in the last twelve months of data, which makes GL6 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. Against the GL6 district median, GL6 9 sits 66% higher, marking it as a dearer pocket of the district.

What another bedroom costs in GL
The Land Registry record, split by size: what each kind of home actually sold for across the GL area. 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.

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. Blank cells mean too few homes for the figure to mean anything.
