Overview

About 8 Evesham Road

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

8 Evesham Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Emmer Green, Reading, Reading (RG4 8RL). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Held since February 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £356,000 sits 74.5% above the 2009 sale of £204,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£223/sq ft) was about 29.3% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 2 refused.
