1 Charlotte Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Caversham, Reading, Reading (RG4 7BY). It has a recorded floor area of 195 m² (around 2103 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band G. The latest certificate (January 2010) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in September 2009 the rating was C, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Good to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good and main heating went from Good to Very Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The latest certificate is from January 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since May 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. At 195 m² the property is well over the postcode median (66 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £806,000 sits 73.3% above the 2009 sale of £465,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£221/sq ft) was about 28.1% below the postcode norm. 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
