About 49a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
49a is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Wargrave, Reading, Reading (RG10 8BU). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2021) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 104), a 3-band jump. Period features are noted in the property record.
Held since December 2007 — 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. Today's modelled estimate of £440,000 sits 87.2% above the 2007 sale of £235,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£291/sq ft) was about 35% below the postcode norm. At 75 m² it's 23.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (98 m² median across 28 EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2008.
