About 5a

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

5a is an end-of-terrace house in Newbury (RG14 1AS). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1950-1966. At 75 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (75–91 m²). The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (17 versus a best of 76). The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a G (score 17), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at G across 4 certificates since March 2016. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 60), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement.
