Overview

About 2 Berkeley Court

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

2 Berkeley Court is a mid-terrace house in Reading (RG1 6LH). It has a recorded floor area of 31 m² (around 334 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. At 31 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in 2 Berkeley Court, where floor areas span 27–90 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (77 versus a worst of 59). The latest certificate (November 2023) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good.

Held since July 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 31 m² it sits well below the postcode median (51 m² across 33 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1997–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £126,000 is 40% above the 2009 sale price.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 2 Berkeley Court is modelled from its 31 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in RG1 6LH. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 4 sales are recorded for 2 Berkeley Court. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 2 Berkeley Court was lodged in November 2023 at band C and is valid until November 2033. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 2 Berkeley Court. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 32 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RG1 6LH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2 Berkeley Court is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
