About 7 Bowes Road
7 Bowes Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Thatcham (RG19 3YN). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
At 71 m² the property is well over the postcode median (54 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Last sale on file: £335,000 in November 2022. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. Across 1999–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.6% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£438/sq ft) was about 71.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
