Overview

About 17 Lincoln Road

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

17 Lincoln Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Reading (RG2 0EX). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2023) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since April 2013. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.

Held since June 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £343,000 sits 90.6% above the 2007 sale of £180,000.
