1 Benning Way is a four-bedroom detached house in Wokingham (RG40 1XX). It has a recorded floor area of 157 m² (around 1690 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
At 157 m² the property is well over the postcode median (92 m² across 34 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£426/sq ft) was about 65.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £720,000 in April 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
