2 Cypress Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Finchampstead, Wokingham, Wokingham (RG40 3JW). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 95 m² it sits well below the postcode median (156 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £519,000 is 24.8% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£407/sq ft) was about 81.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
