About 1 Whitley Street

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

1 Whitley Street is an end-of-terrace house in Reading (RG2 0EG). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B.
