Overview

About 12 Berrylands Road

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

12 Berrylands Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Caversham, Reading, Reading (RG4 8NU). It has a recorded floor area of 131 m² (around 1410 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since February 2011. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 131 m² the property is well over the postcode median (91 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, a loft conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £590,000 is 43.9% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£291/sq ft) was about 28.5% below the postcode norm. Last changed hands 12 years ago, in April 2014.
