Local market context
Flat 1 is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Caversham, Reading, Reading (RG4 6DS). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. At 90 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 5 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 43–190 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since August 1995 — that's 31 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £322,000 sits 544% above the 1995 sale of £50,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£52/sq ft) was about 78.4% below the postcode norm.
