9 Poppy Place is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Wokingham (RG40 1DL). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. At 61 m² this is the 7th smallest of 18 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 59–142 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 1995, a hold of 31 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £315,000 sits 275% above the 1995 sale of £84,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£128/sq ft) was about 39.3% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2025.
