Overview

About 6a

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

6a is a mid-terrace house in Reading (RG1 1NT). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 42 m² this is the 7th smallest of 26 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 33–115 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (March 2025) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 4 certificates since February 2015. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor.

At 42 m² it sits well below the postcode median (69 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 84% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £250,000 is 31.6% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£420/sq ft) was about 41.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in February 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
