About 18 Little Johns Lane
18 Little Johns Lane is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Reading (RG30 1LG). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2018) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in August 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 63 m² the property is well over the postcode median (36 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). Across 2004–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £267,000 is 48.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£265/sq ft) was about 39.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
