Get started1 Byeways Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Knowl Hill, Reading, Reading (RG10 9YL). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since August 2009. Between certificates, main heating went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
