Overview

About 9 Barkham Mews

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

9 Barkham Mews is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Reading (RG1 4BX). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. At 56 m² this is the 9th smallest of 16 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 39–86 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (December 2022) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since January 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good.

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. Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at -0.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £242,000 is 28.7% above the 2007 sale price.
