About 31 Bartlemy Close
31 Bartlemy Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Newbury (RG14 6LE). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
At 57 m² it sits well below the postcode median (139 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £509,000 is 10.7% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£750/sq ft) was about 148.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold November 2021 for £460,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
