Overview

About 16 Star Road

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

16 Star Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Caversham, Reading, Reading (RG4 5BS). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1015 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a G (score 1), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

It hasn't traded since November 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. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £402,000 sits 103% above the 2009 sale of £198,000.
