What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Swan Close, Lechlade 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 | 6 | 54.5% | £386,000 | £100,000 – £540,000 |
| Flat or maisonette | 4 | 36.4% | £193,000 | £165,000 – £300,000 |
| Semi-detached | 1 | 9.1% | £245,000 | £245,000 – £245,000 |
Section 06
Ownership and new build in Swan Close, Lechlade
4 of the sales on record are leasehold and 7 freehold — 36.4% 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 £194,000 and the median freehold sale £386,000 — a gap of +99.0%. 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 | 4 | 36.4% | £194,000 |
| Freehold | 7 | 63.6% | £386,000 |

Living in Swan Close, Lechlade
Every certificate carries an energy efficiency band as well as a floor area. Across Cotswold, 39.3% of 49,354 certificates sit in bands A to C, and 9.5% in F or G — the bands that cost the most to heat and are hardest to mortgage.
| Energy band | Certificates | Share |
|---|---|---|
| A | 328 | 0.7% |
| B | 7,113 | 14.4% |
| C | 11,955 | 24.2% |
| D | 15,222 | 30.8% |

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Cotswold at £1,251 a month as of Jun 2026 — £869 for a one-bedroom home and £1,342 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £300,000 here, that rent is a gross yield of 5.00% 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 GL7 in Jun 2026. 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.
Section 08
The neighbourhood around Swan Close, Lechlade
The 2021 census counted 90,832 residents in Cotswold across 40,597 households. 67.3% of those households own their home and 32.7% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
25 state and independent schools have a GL7 postcode: 21 primary, 3 secondary, 1 16 plus. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

How Swan Close, Lechlade compares
The median across the whole archive is £157,500. Swan Close, Lechlade sits above that national figure — +90.5%.
Within Lechlade the street ranks 32 of 72 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £290,000 (+3.4%).
Where an EPC floor area could be matched to the sale, the median works out at £2,848 per square metre, across 4 of the 11 sales on record. Price per square metre is the only figure that compares a two-bed flat with a four-bed house honestly.
The full range on record runs from £100,000 to £540,000. 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.
Swan Close, Lechlade 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.
