45 Budges Road is a semi-detached house in Wokingham (RG40 1PL). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 29 years, with the last transfer in January 1997. 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 £392,000 sits 415.8% above the 1997 sale of £76,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£80/sq ft) was about 68.8% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, a garage conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 88 m² it's 23.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (71 m² median across 25 EPCs).
