176a is a five-bedroom detached house in Finchampstead, Wokingham, Wokingham (RG40 4JB). It has a recorded floor area of 256 m² (around 2756 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2019) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89).
It hasn't traded since April 2000, a hold of 26 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. At 256 m² the property is well over the postcode median (164 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 77% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £822,000 sits 299% above the 2000 sale of £206,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£75/sq ft) was about 68.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
