9 Porlock Close, Thatcham, RG19 3FR
About 9 Porlock Close
9 Porlock Close is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Thatcham (RG19 3FR). It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 441 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 95), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since September 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £194,000 sits 312.8% above the 2001 sale of £47,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£106/sq ft) was about 62.1% below the postcode norm. At 41 m² it's 25.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (55 m² median across 13 EPCs).
