About 15 Elm Court

15 Elm Court is an end-of-terrace house in Sonning Common, Reading, Reading (RG4 9ND). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average and roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.
