1c, Malthouse Lane, Reading, RG1 7JA
About 1c
1c is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Reading (RG1 7JA). It has a recorded floor area of 37 m² (around 398 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band A. At 37 m² this is the 4th smallest of 6 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 33–86 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (October 2019) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in September 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. Main heating runs on electricity.
Today's modelled estimate of £354,000 is 27.8% below the 2007 sale of £490,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£1,230/sq ft) was about 743.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in January 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 80% of similar EPCs).
