2 Donnington Gardens, Reading, RG1 5LY

2 Donnington Gardens is a six-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Reading (RG1 5LY). It has a recorded floor area of 126 m² (around 1356 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2018) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79).

It hasn't traded since November 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 126 m² the property is well over the postcode median (91 m² across 38 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £446,000 sits 84.3% above the 2007 sale of £242,000. 8 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 6 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
