Overview

About 31 Combe Road

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

31 Combe Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Tilehurst, Reading, Reading (RG30 4LS). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows a C (score 71). When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

It hasn't traded since December 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. Across 2004–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £318,000 sits 84.9% above the 2009 sale of £172,000.
