Overview

About 45 Cockney Hill

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

45 Cockney Hill is a three-bedroom detached house in Tilehurst, Reading, Reading (RG30 4HF). It has a recorded floor area of 115 m² (around 1238 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 61), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 115 m² it's 17.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (140 m² median across 17 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in November 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. Today's modelled estimate of £518,000 is 27.9% above the 2015 sale price.
