How Garvey Close, Chepstow prices moved
The chart tracks the median Garvey Close, Chepstow house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 1999. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 4 | £45,725 | £101,531 |
The highest yearly median on record for Garvey Close, Chepstow is £58,000 in 1999; the lowest is £41,748 in 1996. Across the full 4-year record the cash median has moved from £41,748 to £58,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £90,560, so the real change over the whole record is +30.5% — about +9.28% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Section 02
The most recent sales
Every row is a completed sale as lodged with HM Land Registry. The right-hand column restates the price in 2026 money, which is the only fair way to compare a sale from the 1990s with one from last year.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Garvey Close, Chepstow is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.
| Property type | Sales | Share | Median paid | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Terraced | 57 | 79.2% | £96,000 | £39,850 – £278,000 |
| Semi-detached | 10 | 13.9% | £58,950 | £43,500 – £227,000 |
| Detached | 5 | 6.9% | £52,000 | £39,995 – £71,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Garvey Close, Chepstow
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 72 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 72 | 100.0% | £78,500 |
| New build | 19 | 26.4% | £43,100 |
| Existing home | 53 | 73.6% | £115,250 |
New builds sold for less than the median existing home — -62.6%. A new-build premium is normal: the buyer gets a warranty and nothing to fix, and the price is set by a developer rather than negotiated between two households.
A further 1 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.

Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of NP16, 56 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 15 violent, 0 burglary, 3 vehicle-related and 12 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 3.0 times quieter.
Against the 87,004 residents the 2021 census counted in Forest of Dean, that is 0.64 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.
A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.
