Overview

About 5 Belle Vue Road

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

5 Belle Vue Road is a mid-terrace house in Reading (RG1 7TX). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2023) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80).

Held since April 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £294,000 sits 135.2% above the 2007 sale of £125,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£159/sq ft) was about 38.3% below the postcode norm.
