About Projection West
Projection West is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Reading (RG1 1ET). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. At 69 m² this is the 35th smallest of 43 units on EPC record in Projection West, where floor areas span 37–73 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (September 2020) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since March 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 69 m² the property is well over the postcode median (52 m² across 42 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £268,000 is 20.4% above the 2007 sale price.
