About 42 Park Lane
42 Park Lane is an end-of-terrace house in Newbury (RG14 1EN). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 433 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2010) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 1997, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £189,000 sits 281.8% above the 1997 sale of £49,500.
