5 Barlows Road, Tadley, RG26 3NA

5 Barlows Road is an end-of-terrace house in Tadley (RG26 3NA). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 484 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since October 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 45 m² this is the 6th smallest of 45 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–117 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to A across 45 units on file.

It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 45 m² it sits well below the postcode median (84 m² across 44 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £204,000 is 20% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£351/sq ft) was about 83.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
