How Welsh Street, Chepstow prices moved

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.

Homes that sold twice
These addresses appear in the register more than once, so the same bricks are being priced twice. That makes them the strongest evidence of what actually happened to Welsh Street, Chepstow values — no mix of property types can flatter the number.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Welsh Street, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 21 | 39.6% | £340,000 | £92,125 – £815,000 |
| Semi-detached | 11 | 20.8% | £195,000 | £73,000 – £510,000 |
| Terraced | 11 | 20.8% | £187,000 | £68,000 – £599,950 |
| Flat or maisonette | 10 | 18.9% | £145,000 | £120,000 – £215,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Welsh Street, Chepstow
10 of the sales on record are leasehold and 43 freehold — 18.9% 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.
The median leasehold sale is £147,500 and the median freehold sale £279,000 — a gap of +89.2%. Most of that gap is property type rather than tenure itself: leasehold here is largely flats, freehold largely houses.
| Category | Sales | Share | Median paid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 10 | 18.9% | £147,500 |
| Freehold | 43 | 81.1% | £279,000 |
| New build | 1 | 1.9% | £279,000 |
| Existing home | 52 | 98.1% | £212,500 |
New builds sold for more than the median existing home — +31.3%. 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 19 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.
Section 07
Living in Welsh Street, Chepstow
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Forest of Dean, 38.6% of 39,729 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 10.3% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 452 | 1.1% |
| B | 5,467 | 13.8% |
| C | 9,410 | 23.7% |
| D | 12,580 | 31.7% |
| E | 7,732 | 19.5% |
| F | 3,095 | 7.8% |
| G | 993 | 2.5% |
The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Forest of Dean at £824 a month as of Jun 2026 — £591 for a one-bedroom home and £954 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £215,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 4.60% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.
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.
Section 08
The neighbourhood around Welsh Street, Chepstow
The 2021 census counted 87,004 residents in Forest of Dean across 37,217 households. 73.5% of those households own their home and 26.5% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
3 state and independent schools have a NP16 postcode: 2 primary, 1 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

How Welsh Street, Chepstow compares

Within Chepstow the street ranks 141 of 331 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £185,000 (+16.2%).

The full range on record runs from £68,000 to £815,000. Extremes usually mean something unusual — a plot sold without a house on it, a transfer between family members, or a very large property — so the median is the number to trust.
Welsh Street, Chepstow sits in Forest of Dean, in Wales.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Forest of Dean at 8.2 times median local earnings of £33,474 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

How many homes have sold in Welsh Street, Chepstow?

When were Welsh Street, Chepstow house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £195,000, set in 2016. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
What is the price per square metre in Welsh Street, Chepstow?

The latest sale shown here completed on 20 Mar 2025. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
