About 47a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
47a is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Earley, Reading, Reading (RG6 1EG). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2023) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since July 2012. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £417,000 sits 89.5% above the 2007 sale of £220,000. At 84 m² it sits well below the postcode median (124 m² across 23 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2015.
