About 11 Francis Street
11 Francis Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Reading (RG1 2QB). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (January 2020) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since November 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. Other recorded features include a loft.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in January 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £273,000 sits 56% above the 2007 sale of £175,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs).
