The typical Churchdown home sells for about £345,000, but the type of house moves that a long way. Flats change hands for under half that. Detached houses go for well over half a million. The semis sit almost on the median. Prices are respectable without being frightening, which is about right for a village of owners who rarely sell.
The Land Registry recorded 35 sales in the year to May 2026, at a median of about £345,000. Thirteen semis sold for a median of about £355,000. Eight detached houses went for about £590,000, five terraces for about £223,000 and nine flats for about £165,000. The flats are the cheap way in, and with only nine of them selling in a year, the cheap way in has a queue.
The official house price index for the area rose 6% in the twelve months to May 2026. The flat-only index rose 2% over the same year. Both are published changes in a wider index, and neither tells you what happens next. Owners of houses did well out of the year. Owners of flats mostly looked on.
Band C is the most common council-tax band in Churchdown, and only about 21% of homes are in Bands A and B. A Band D home pays about £2,340 a year. Before you commit, look up a specific house's band on the government's valuation list. Neighbouring semis can sit in different bands, and that gap comes round every year.
Private rent across the Tewkesbury area averaged about £990 a month in April 2026, according to the Office for National Statistics' index. That is a borough-wide mean, not a median of listings in the village. By size it runs from about £670 for one bedroom to about £890 for two and about £1,120 for three, reaching about £1,610 for four or more. The same average has to cover Tewkesbury's town streets and its villages, so for a Churchdown semi it is an educated guess at best.
Household income here averages about £61,000 a year. That is the Office for National Statistics' modelled gross figure, before tax, for the financial year to March 2023, and it is a few years old now. At those incomes a typical semi is within reach for a couple who both work and a real stretch for anyone buying alone. The terraces and flats are where a single buyer has a chance.
The median price works out at about £3,800 per square metre, across a typical floor area of about 86 square metres. That figure covers only the sales that could be matched to an energy certificate, which is 63% of them. The rest went through unmeasured, so the rate is a good guide but an incomplete one. Detached houses are the most likely to slip outside it, since they sell least often and vary most.
Census 2021 puts about 42% of Churchdown homes at three bedrooms and 33% at four or more. Two-bedroom homes make up 18% and one-bedroom homes 7%. Most of the stock was built for families who planned to grow, and the price per square metre is mostly the price of those spare rooms.
Churchdown sits squarely in the middle on cost. It is fair value for a family semi on two incomes, and a first-time buyer on one income will be looking at a very short list of flats.
