Overview

About 35a

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

35a is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Reading (RG30 2UH). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (September 2021) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in May 2018 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 50 m² this is the 16th smallest of 51 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 28–128 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 51 units on file.

At 50 m² it sits well below the postcode median (76 m² across 50 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Across 1999–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £195,000 is 23.4% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£294/sq ft) was about 57.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: August 2021 at £158,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 35a is modelled from its 50 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in RG30 2UH. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 35a. 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 35a was lodged in September 2021 at band E and is valid until September 2031. 4 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 35a. 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 2UH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
35a is in council tax band B. 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.
