About Flat 1
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 1 is a detached house in Reading (RG30 2RR). It has a recorded floor area of 43 m² (around 463 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2022. The latest certificate (February 2022) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. Earlier certificates rated it C (September 2019); the latest reading is one band lower. Main heating runs on electricity: electricity, unspecified tariff.
Today's modelled estimate of £179,000 is 22.2% below the 2022 sale of £230,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition.

At 43 m² it's 17.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (52 m² median across 19 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Last sale on file: £230,000 in April 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 Flat 1 is modelled from its 43 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in RG30 2RR. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Flat 1. 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 Flat 1 was lodged in February 2022 at band D and is valid until February 2032. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Flat 1. 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 2RR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
