About 233 London Road

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

233 London Road is an end-of-terrace house in Reading (RG1 3NY). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2021) shows an F (score 22), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 67), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 56 m² this is the 12th smallest of 29 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 25–188 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (22 versus a best of 72).

Today's modelled estimate of £215,000 is 52.2% below the 2021 sale of £450,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£747/sq ft) was about 347.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Most recent transfer: September 2021 at £450,000.
