5 Crendon Court is a one-bedroom detached house in Caversham, Reading, Reading (RG4 8BE). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 530 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. At 49 m² this is the 13th smallest of 23 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 34–98 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. Other recorded features include notable views. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. Main heating runs on electricity.
