About 8 Dunleary Court
8 Dunleary Court is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Reading (RG30 2DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. At 68 m² this is the 8th smallest of 9 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 61–68 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (July 2012); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
