Overview

About 39 Ashburton Road

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

39 Ashburton Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Reading (RG2 7PA). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since March 2013. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £310,000 sits 91.4% above the 2013 sale of £162,000. On the market in June 2013 and unlisted since — roughly 13 years. At 62 m² it's 16.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (74 m² median across 21 EPCs).
