Overview

About 22 Battle Square

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

22 Battle Square is a detached house in Reading (RG30 1AL). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft) and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2012) returns a high B (score 85), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in March 2012 the rating was C, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good. The latest certificate is from October 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 64 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 43 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 61–113 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the top.

At 64 m² it sits well below the postcode median (106 m² across 42 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 76% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £275,000 is 10% above the 2012 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£363/sq ft) was about 25.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in December 2012, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
