22 Buttercup Close is a five-bedroom detached house in Wokingham (RG40 1QZ). It has a recorded floor area of 143 m² (around 1539 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band F. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Held since May 2001 — that's 25 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 £633,000 sits 153.3% above the 2001 sale of £249,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£162/sq ft) was about 48% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, a garage conversion and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
