Overview

About 6 Connaught Close

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

6 Connaught Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Reading (RG30 2UG). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 45). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 6 Connaught Close is modelled from its 94 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in RG30 2UG. 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 6 Connaught Close. 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 6 Connaught Close was lodged in February 2009 at band F and expired in February 2019, 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. 6 applications are matched to 6 Connaught Close. 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 32 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RG30 2UG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
6 Connaught Close is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
