About 2 Thornton Mews
2 Thornton Mews is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Reading (RG30 1LW). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2020) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (February 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since January 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £261,000 sits 446.6% above the 1997 sale of £47,750.
