5 Victoria Gardens is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Wokingham (RG40 5YJ). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£138/sq ft) was about 59.6% below the postcode norm. At 89 m² it's 18.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (75 m² median across 39 EPCs).
