About 109 Oxford Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
109 Oxford Road is a mid-terrace house in Reading (RG1 7UD). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. At 68 m² this is the 5th smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 15–100 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (66 versus a best of 79). The latest certificate (March 2020) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75).
Held since April 2008 — that's 18 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. 29 planning records sit against the property, 15 approved, 14 refused. Past consents include an extension, subdivision and change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). Across 2000–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.1% per year.
