About 15 Drayton Road

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

15 Drayton Road is a semi-detached house in Reading (RG30 2PH). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C.
