Overview

About 21 Shenstone Road

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

21 Shenstone Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Reading (RG2 0DT). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2019) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.
