Overview

About Phoenix House

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

Phoenix House is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Newbury (RG14 5QA). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft). It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. At 53 m² this is the 4th smallest of 8 units on EPC record in Phoenix House, where floor areas span 45–80 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (June 2016) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £237,000 is 18.3% below the 2016 sale of £290,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£508/sq ft) was about 50.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 7 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 76% of similar EPCs). 10 years since the last transfer (May 2016).
