About 12d
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
12d is a five-bedroom detached house in Caversham, Reading, Reading (RG4 6NA). It has a recorded floor area of 189 m² (around 2030 sq ft) and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2009) returns a B (score 84), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since September 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. Today's modelled estimate of £890,000 sits 58.9% above the 2009 sale of £560,000. At 189 m² it's 24.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (152 m² median across 46 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 83% of similar EPCs).
