Overview

About 34 Deans Farm

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

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.

At 185 m² the property is well over the postcode median (114 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Last sale on file: £895,000 in January 2021. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. Across 1996–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £992,000 is 10.8% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£449/sq ft) was about 91.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 10 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 7 refused.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 34 Deans Farm is modelled from its 185 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in RG4 5JZ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 4 sales are recorded for 34 Deans Farm. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 34 Deans Farm was lodged in April 2013 at band E and expired in April 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 10 applications are matched to 34 Deans Farm. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 31 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RG4 5JZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
34 Deans Farm is in council tax band F. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
