How Marlborough Road, Gloucester prices moved
The chart tracks the median Marlborough Road, Gloucester house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2025. 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 | £43,000 | £95,480 |
| 2000s | 7 | £98,250 | £178,983 |
| 2010s | 3 | £147,500 | £207,975 |
| 2020s | 2 | £226,500 | £231,424 |
The highest yearly median on record for Marlborough Road, Gloucester is £270,000 in 2025; the lowest is £38,500 in 1997. Across the full 30-year record the cash median has moved from £43,000 to £270,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £93,277, so the real change over the whole record is +195.8% — about +3.81% 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.
Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +74.2% in cash against +26.2% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Marlborough Road, Gloucester 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Semi-detached | 126 | 75.0% | £129,950 | £30,000 – £285,000 |

| Detached | 11 | 6.5% | £170,000 | £34,000 – £372,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Marlborough Road, Gloucester
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 168 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 | 168 | 100.0% | £127,250 |
A further 6 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.

Against the median sale of £127,250 here, that rent is a gross yield of 11.80% 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.
No street-level crime was published for GL4 in Jun 2026 by Gloucestershire. Several forces do not supply street-level data to police.uk, so this is a gap in the source rather than a crime-free month — and printing a zero would say something the data does not.

Marlborough Road, Gloucester sits in Cotswold, in the South West.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Cotswold at 13.4 times median local earnings of £33,872 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.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Marlborough Road, Gloucester?

When were Marlborough Road, Gloucester house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £270,000, set in 2025. 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 Marlborough Road, Gloucester?

The latest sale shown here completed on 21 May 2026. 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.
