9 Highfield Close is a semi-detached house in Wokingham (RG40 1DG). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1119 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2012) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 104 m² it's 19.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (87 m² median across 25 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £463,000 sits 62.5% above the 2013 sale of £285,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£255/sq ft) was about 22.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: new windows approved in 2016. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in April 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
