About 34 Deans Farm
34 Deans Farm is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Caversham, Reading, Reading (RG4 5JZ). It has a recorded floor area of 185 m² (around 1991 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since May 2011. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
