Overview

About 1 Salisbury Road

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

1 Salisbury Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Reading (RG30 1BH). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2024) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.

Held since December 2009 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £315,000 sits 89.8% above the 2009 sale of £166,000.
