Overview

About 19 Blenheim Gardens

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

19 Blenheim Gardens is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Reading (RG1 5QG). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2023) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since July 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 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £345,000 sits 64.3% above the 2007 sale of £210,000. At 80 m² it's 25% larger than the typical home in the postcode (64 m² median across 53 EPCs).
