Overview

About 5 Eccles Close

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

5 Eccles Close is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Caversham, Reading, Reading (RG4 5BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Today's modelled estimate of £439,000 is 20.3% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£409/sq ft) was about 71.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in July 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
