About 14 Barn Close
14 Barn Close is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Reading (RG30 3EE). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 921 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £316,000 sits 82.7% above the 2009 sale of £173,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs).
