About 2 Surrey Road
2 Surrey Road is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Reading (RG2 0EU). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (March 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Untraded for 28 years, with the last transfer in August 1998. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £322,000 sits 335.1% above the 1998 sale of £74,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£80/sq ft) was about 60.5% below the postcode norm. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.
