Overview

About 9 Bourton Close

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

9 Bourton Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Tilehurst, Reading, Reading (RG30 4LB). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Today's modelled estimate of £396,000 sits 72.2% above the 2013 sale of £230,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£227/sq ft) was about 27.9% below the postcode norm. At 94 m² it's 19% larger than the typical home in the postcode (79 m² median across 3 EPCs). Last sold in November 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
