About 5 Evesham Road

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

5 Evesham Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Emmer Green, Reading, Reading (RG4 8RL). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1291 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2011) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70).

Held since August 1998 — that's 28 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. At 120 m² the property is well over the postcode median (87 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
