12 Milton Gardens is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Wokingham (RG40 1DA). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2023) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump.
Held since September 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. Today's modelled estimate of £500,000 sits 263.6% above the 1998 sale of £137,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£142/sq ft) was about 52.2% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2023. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
