About Arun Court
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Arun Court is a semi-detached house in Reading (RG30 2EZ). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1991-1995. At 54 m² this is the 9th smallest of 11 units on EPC record in Arun Court, where floor areas span 36–54 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 11 units on file. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since December 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across 1996–2001, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £218,000 sits 142.2% above the 2001 sale of £90,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£155/sq ft) was about 32.5% below the postcode norm.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Arun Court is modelled from its 54 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in RG30 2EZ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for Arun Court. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Arun Court was lodged in August 2016 at band D and expired in August 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Arun Court. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 28 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RG30 2EZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
